Busy to-do list
A chance to wear many hats
Hour by hour.

He chortles from the tree top
Totally for her.

Farm Chores February 22, 2015
Hair salted with hay
Muddy hand-prints adorn pants
Makings of happy!
Art Prescription: I love being out at the farm in the morning with the horses. They greet me close to the gait waiting for their breakfast. Fresh hay is very exciting. The cardinals are singing and the clouds break into sunshine.
