Waiting for the snow to begin ... and waiting ... and waiting. While waiting we heard a loud constant noise outside. Looking out the window there was a huge flock of birds in the trees across the street. So I grabbed the camera and ran outside just to find they had moved down the street. As I walked towards them determined to get the shot of the tree full of birds I hear "Hi Ms. Twaillah". Looking next to me I see the neighbors sweet little daughter (3rd grade WAY intelligent young lady) walking beside me with what looks like a book in her hand. She was tracking the birds too. You see she saw and heard the birds outside and took some card board from her mom's stash and a few sheets of paper and stapled them together. Then she found a black marker (the same color as the birds) and headed outside. The birds left! How rude!! She wanted to draw their pictures and write a story about them ... "The Birds in my Yard" by Brooke.
WAIT!!! Can you hold up that book and let me take a picture? "Yes ma'am". PAD ... no snow but this was so much better!! Way to go Brooke, can't wait to see the story!
Pictures with a story are the best. And the birds didn't get completely away. That tree in the background is peppered with them!
ReplyDeleteAwesome! Tell Brooke when she writes that story I would love to have a copy - Great PAD
