Prized Pocket ...

Hello Everyone.

Neva was very excited about her pocket full of "treasures". Having helped our neighbor Nancy clean up the perennial gardens that encircle our building, my 3 1/2-year-old daughter had accumulated a small collection of found objects and stored them in her coat pocket. She instructed that it was not to be washed.

The coat was covered in mud splatter, the bottoms of the sleeves stained an earthy brown. It needed to be washed. So, my wife Kathleen carefully removed the collection: one piece of twine, two snail shells and one blue bead.

Happy sweeping,
