ReplyDeleteIt's my birthday today, so stay tuned this afternoon for when I go open my presents and find out what's inside! My dad sent 6 presents, which have been sitting in my office taunting me since Friday. Today, after lunch, I will go there and OPEN THEM! YAY!! Then, of course, I will post about it. In the meantime, if you visit and scroll down a couple of days you can see the stack of wrapped presents...and also the present I gave away for my birthday.
The sculpture is a gem. As they hold hands they can move, if one lets go, they all fall, but can pick each other up and begin again. Quite a message that we need to hang on to each other, trusting to let others join in.
