This week my sister, after a year long battle, was granted a "bailout" on her mortgage, allowing her family to remain in their home despite my brother in law losing his job. And yesterday my son had skin tests reveal that he has most likely outgrown his life-threatening food allergies. All of them. This morning I was watching the goldfinches on my feeder and thinking about how they were my grandmothers favorite, how she could imitate their call perfectly. And I was wondering if she was pulling some strings for us. I got goosebumps when I read this poem. So perfectly in time with my life right now. Thank you.
