Valentines Gold

Our story for the week of Valentines was "A Million Valentines" by Suzanne Downs from the Juniper tree. You can sign up for her monthly news letter. It is a great resource! In the story an old man is watching the sun rise over the snow topped mountains and the Golden hue reminds him of the golden finches he usually feeds. He finds his supplies ( net bags and thistle) and sets it out it out as a Valentine gift for the birds. They in turn leave him a surprise Valentines as well! We visited our local Birding store and found the bags and the thistle. The next day we had attracted golden finches to our yard! The story came to life!
