I shall try my best!

A neighbour whose hens I am looking after for the next fortnight, while they are away, came round this evening.  She asked me could I look after these flowers for her too.  A bit of a tall order!  I hope she's not expecting them back!  If she does, they won't be looking anything like this!

I got a lovely card from my sister today, with a verse on it inspired by an Eskimo legend - 
Perhaps they are not the stars,
but rather openings in the heavens,
where the love of our lost ones pours through
and shines down upon us to let us know 
that they are happy.

It's a nice way of thinking of them.
