As young children, we were taught a prayer by our mother that we said every night while being tucked into bed; my sister CJ and I also taught it to our children. When I wrote the title for these pictures, it gently rose to the surface as a sweet memory.
Dear Lord, we thank Thee for the night, and for the pleasant morning light; for rest and food and loving care and all that makes this world so faire. Help us to do the things we should, to be to others kind and good; in all we do at work or play, to grow more loving every day. Amen.
I believe this little bird is McCoy. It's notched, and was made to sit on flower pots.
