little birdie

March7

Handcrafted card, stamped with bird on a branchWho doesn’t need a stash of all-purpose greeting cards on hand? I whipped up a batch of these for my sister-in-law. (Hopefully, I’ll get these in the mail to her before she sees this post!)

There is something magical about sending an actual paper card through the mail. I certainly love being on the receiving end. Giving and receiving cards is one of life’s affordable luxuries — another lovely delight.

These little birdies could be used to say happy birthday, I’m thinking of you, sorry to hear of youf loss, or whatever your heart desires.

For those so inclined, maybe a clever bird quote is in order…

Hold fast to your dreams, for without them life is a broken winged bird that cannot fly.

- Langston Hughes
American writer and poet

A bird doesn’t sing because it has an answer, it sings because it has a song.

- Maya Angelou
American writer and poet

I want to sing like the birds sing not worrying about who hears or what they think.

- Rumi
Sufi poet

If I keep a green bough in my heart, then the singing bird will come.

- Chinese proverb

Accept that some days you are the pigeon, and some days you are the statue.

- Dilbert
Character created by Scott Adams

Have a delightful day!
