Yard Art ~ July 1, 2010~ (Mama's gift from Phil)

~~~

This owl was a gift to my mom from a grandson.  It seems to be hand carved out of a piece of hard/heavy wood. Mom kept it for years on her front porch, among her potted flowers.

Today it  perches in the little memory garden I have for mom, next to my kitchen window!

This seems the perfect spot for this owl and I know Mom would be happy that he's here! 
I'm reminded every time I 'm near the garden  or glance out the window- of both my mom and my nephew!
(both have passed on)

Very nice. I too enjoy having some pieces that belonged to others in the garden.
