  1. heavenhappens – Welcome to my life. You can share my grown up world here at http://heavenhappens.me where I blog my faith, my thoughts, my life, my travels, my photographs and my poetry. Growing up just after the war was a grim experience. So, now that I have 7 grandchildren, I am reclaiming my childhood by seeing the world anew through their eyes. Every minute I spend with them is magical. So this blog is for them ~ Ben, Rosie, Tiffany, Stanley, Thea, Mateo, and the youngest, Olivia! I hope, when they are all grown up, they will enjoy reading it and finding out about their grandma’s life, and know how very happy they made her. I hope you enjoy reading my posts, leave a comment or a link and I will get back to you. I’m sorry to say that my darling husband died of Covid on Good Friday 2020. Since then the wind has gone out of my sails and I’ve hardly written a thing. I will try to pick up my life and start writing again one day. But for now please enjoy exploring my life🕊️

  8. maryoconnor12 – Along the Connecticut shoreline – I am a writer, poet, community volunteer, pupil of psychology, writing instructor, guest speaker, artist, lover of nature, curious traveler and author of Life Is Full of Sweet Spots, An Exploration of Joy, as well as Dreams of a Wingless Child, a book of award-winning poetry. An advocate of the power of writing as an agent of change, I enjoy speaking to community groups about the joy of making words sing and conduct creative poetry writing workshops for inmates at the State of Connecticut’s York Correctional Institution. As a writer and a painter, I enjoy living along the Connecticut shore, where I infuse everyday observations of the natural world with the sensitivity and insightfulness that tend to define my experience of life. It is these reflections that have helped me realize that one need not look far to find an element of peace, of celebration, of joy, in this inordinate world of which we are all a part.

  12. Beautiful – and, I thought as viewing/reading, “Remembering to hold onto hope until you learn to trust again…” Thanks! 🙂

  13. …and after the parent bird, Nature’s natural conclusion…the gift of eggs. So stunning…and so clever. Thank you so much…can you keep us posted on the progress of these eggs? Feel have made a connection with them now…!

    1. The nest was in a friend’s garden – and she just updated me yesterday saying that the eggs are still there but that the mother has been absent quite a bit but there has been activity nearby with men installing solar panels. We are hopeful – and she is going to keep me posted and I will keep you posted!

      1. Oooooooh…now on tenderhooks, do hope the eggs are still ok and mum comes back to incubate…that was SUCH a special photo capture I reblogged it on my Blog…thank you! Mmmmmm what can I say about men installing solar panels…? Got to be done, I suppose, but Nature/ Man living side by side…so delicate and precarious…Awaiting posts with baited breath…?

    What a beautiful thought so appropriate for the new life waiting to come out of those eggs.

  17. I found an almost perfect egg on my drive…
    someone had stolen ‘lunch’.
    I took what was left and washed it off…
    I’m going to see if the local children’s museum would like it.

    Beautiful. Your photos remind me how simple life is and how little notice I usually take of the nature about me. Thank you!

  19. CarmenLovell – I am obsessed with art in its varying forms. I want to live in the woods and find faeries and goblins but would miss wi-fi and cake.
    CarmenLovell says:

    Love the vulnerability the eggs convey because they’re just so small, yet the protective yellow-brown of the rushes encircles them and seems to cradle them.
