The wonderful little white flower bush was just opening up... and the kookaburra was just sitting waiting... when these wonderful poppets arrived ... all the way down from the lovely mountains.... to help Mum and Dad help Grandma tidy her house..... of course it wasn't all work.... at morning tea "cuppa time" there was a fashion parade.... when the kids enjoyed dressing up in some of Grandma's dressing up things.... some of them enjoyed playing the organ for a bit...slowly sometimes... and sometimes with a good beat....!! Thank you kids and Mum and Dad for being so splendidly helpful...coming out of nowhere to help when I am supposed to be "resting" my foot! How encouraging you all were!

I sing a song of the saints of God, patient and brave and true who toiled and fought and lived and died for the Lord they loved and knew ..... ....you can meet them in school or in lanes, or at sea , in church or in trains or in shops or at tea , for the saints of God began just like me, and I mean to be one too! from the Australian Hymn Book. Hymn by Lesbia Scott, 1898, John Henry Hopkins, 1861-1945
