His eye is on the sparrow........

We are blessed to have an extended family of house sparrows occupying a corner of our back garden. Nothing to astound bird lovers, quite ordinary but so special to us are these little birds. We watched them this morning, hoping around joyfully collecting nest material. Do they know He's watching them?
My Sparrows nature journalled about their sparrow friends. They have small spiral bound artist pads of quality stock paper, in which they sketch and write of all their various nature finds.
They keep their nature journals in their explorer backpacks with a permanent stock of watercolour pencils and paints, brushes, collection bags, an insect pot, field guide and magnifying glass.
And lest I become like the fabelled crab who told her son to walk forward....I have one myself, though it is not quite to full as theirs.
These children of mine are even more precious than sparrows.
And He's watching me .
