How is this possible?

This morning’s online reading brought news of yet another fatality due to ICE in Minnesota. I’ve written to my senators and representative, for all the good that will do in Texas. Thank goodness I read this poem by Karen Salmansohn which was posted by a local friend …




Except even this brings to mind the sweet child in the bunny hat abducted by ICE. And how sad is it that you all know what I mean?

Still, I did receive some treasures in the mail from Fiona. The postcard that inspired my first patch arrived in real life …




To which I’ve circled back and added a patch to match the project title Remember 2026




Three books arrived in a separate package from Fiona, about which I’ll write more in a separate post as they deserve extra attention …



 

Meantime, let us pray for the good people of Minnesota. And may you all be safe and warm at home during the storm, wherever you may be.
