I would like to thank all of you who added a Christmas Card for Noah... The concerted effort brought a million cards to Noah's family within a short amount of time.
Sadly, not long after the outpouring of generosity of the readers on the World Wide Web, little Noah Biorkman was taken to heaven. God took his child to be with him on November 23,2009.
Now that Noah is gone, his parents have requested bloggers and Facebook posters to ask that the cards and gifts stop. They appreciated the effort to make his requesr a reality .
If you would still like to honor Noah, his mother has asked that you direct your memorials to the hospital and charity that worked to care for Noah's medical and social needs in his days as a patient.

Dancing Eagles
Saturday brought some nice temperatures for spending time outside in the last days of November.
We have been gifted with seeing Bald Eagles using our vicinity as a feeding area for the last 17 years. Sightings are becoming more numerous and we have come to believe they may have set-up a nesting site not far away.
Friday morning I caught a single raptor sitting in a cottonwood after seeing two adults at tree top level on several occassions, as Hubby & me continue working on our Timber Life Lodge.
It never loses its AWE power when we see a creature God speaks of in his scripture. One of my favorties -
Isaiah 40:31. But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary: and they shall walk, and not faint....
We listened and watched for the sounds and sighting of the eagles that had shown themselves the last little while. First seeing one, then another,eventually we saw 2 adults and two immature younsters darting and circling together enjoying the warm thermals above.
The adult to the right, left the dance earlier than the others to seek new territory to enjoy while the daylight still allowed for exploration....
