The Beautiful Nest
One grass stem. One rose petal. One curl of silver vine. Everyone says the nest will take forever — so is it worth the wait?
Patience for kids who want everything finished immediately. The sun climbs, the sun sinks, and the weaving happens by starlight. Ends with Stella curled up snug in the nest she took her time over.
