A little bit about moi:
I am a mom, a nana, a sister, a woman, a friend, a human being…a youth counsellor, Family Life Educator.
I have been working in the helping profession for over 25 years and volunteered in various capacities from youths to seniors.
Tournesol is my nom de plume for haiku and other Japanese form poetry here at Tournesoldansunjardin https://cheryllynnroberts.wordpress.com I hope you enjoy reading through my daily waka.
I also have another blog "Stop the Stigma" where I may stand on my soapbox now and then and hope it will become a place to drop in and share or comment on issues important to you. In that vein this could be a great way to learn from each other.

Yes, that photo is taken from the window where my mother rocked for hours looking at her guests and the river. She would fill the feeder twice a day…woodpeckers. cardinal family, wrens, hummingbird (guess he didn’t get to South America) The woodpeckers are the bossiest.

My step-father continues to feed them just like she did. He has since she went into the nursing home for 7 years.
