Today, I am grateful for the postcard I received from an aunt who is traveling in Ireland.
Today, I am grateful for the last full week of school for my boys and the imminent prospect of a vacation with my sister-in-law and brother-in-law to northern Minnesota.
Today, I am grateful for rain.
Today, I am grateful for a food catapult, which Jack and I built last night. It was fun, and Jack did a great job following instructions!
Today, I am grateful for the birds nesting on our front porch. I think it's a pair of barn swallows and would appreciate a birder weighing in on that identification.
Building the nest. They won't stay put for me to take a picture with the door open. |
This picture was taken through the window over our front door. You can see how much progress they've made on the nest. |
We'll just hose the bird poo off the porch periodically. I hope we get to see babies soon!
What are you grateful for today?
Love Jack's catapult! I'd say you are correct on your barn swallow identification. They usually build cup-shaped nests on ledges or under eaves. What fun to watch the family grow ;)
