What a treat to open the bedroom blinds today after having been gone for two days to see this Sandhill Crane family in my backyard. We have a big open field behind our house where a farmer oftentimes plants corn. It’s also a great nesting ground for Sandhill Cranes who always seem to find their way to it each year. And as sometimes happens, they find their way to our backyard and it’s such a treat to see them up close.
I was feeling a bit tired after two days of fun, eating and shopping with my dear friend who celebrates the same birth day as me. And I couldn’t help but feel that the Sandhill Cranes showed up as a reminder to ground myself once again back to what is most important to me — which is home and simplicity.
Thank you dear Sandhill Cranes!
