Trouble

Trouble trimmed her starfish arms and clipped her sprouting wings; Faith made Hope grow lacy limbs, while Grace pulled silver strings.

      One of my students asked how starfish ‘get made’ – and I had to look it up to be accurate. After reading about starfish regenerating when they are hurt, I had to write about it! 🙂

        Oh I love this too, and extra little lesson that’s easily understandable to us “old folks”!

      It’s all about hope – without it, we can’t keep getting up. And it’s the getting up over and over that makes us strong…
