Today’s advent window opens on “Birds of a Feather”. It’s a little shop that does all things sewing, quilting, and such and is owned by Liz Sheehe. When I found out that I was going to lose my hair due to the whole brain radiation treatments, I went in to see if they could make me a dew rag or scarf or hat or something. It had to be “funky”, not the typical and they said they were up for the challenge.
These gals took it upon themselves as a project to make sure that I have some very cute things to wear. And the fact that we are in the holiday rush, the fact that they have much more to do than think of the measurements of my head and the comfort of my noggin, did not matter. It was just a matter of course for them, doing the next right thing, being good to people and trying to make my life easier. That’s how they treat all their customers. I’m proud to call them neighbors and certainly grateful for their talent and compassion in this small but important area for me.
Angels come in all sizes and do all kind of things. These angels happen to be called “Birds of a Feather”.
