Thanks Lindsay and Congratulations, Sarah! No sour grapes here — your fable was great! Also, after seeing the great fables everyone wrote I was careful not to count my chicks before they hatched! Way to go, everyone.

Hi Guys,
Thanks for the kind words. I was just so happy to have a fun assignment. Personally, I ADORED Danielle Bean’s fable about the hen and I look forward to reading all the rest of the entries soon.
God bless you all on this first day of Advent. Be well.
