Hemingway, come look at this:
This leaf doesn’t look normal but I can’t reach it. What has happened to it?
Steinbeck, am I going to have to explain this to you every fall?
Probably. I have a short attention span. MOL!
Look at the deck. Notice that there are lots of leaves that look like that and they are scattered all over.
Why aren’t they still in the trees? Do they feel bad that they are no longer green so they jump off?
No. The Painting Fairies come along and paint the leaves so they change colors for the humans to enjoy in the fall.
They seem to be rather limited in their choices of color.
Not everywhere. They use different colors for different trees. Look off in the distance.
Oh………that’s pretty. But you know what, Hemingway?
What?
Those Painting Fairies are going to have mighty wet feet with all the rain we’ve been having. I bet Mom won’t let them in the house with their wet feet!
Oh Steinbeck……………….

Well thank you kindly. It’s my “fall look”.

I don’t think they need to come in the house. No trees there!
But Mom has one big plant that looks like a tree.

The painting fairies haven’t started working around here yet. The leaves are just leaping off the trees without waiting for the fairies to decorate!! Have fun watching those leaves guys………….
Hugs, Teddy
Mom said that because of all the wind and rain, lots of leaves around here are jumping off before the paintbrush hits them, too.

Painting Fairies…love it! They have been visiting around our yard too with shades of red.
We don’t have much red showing in our yard, but down the street there’s some beautiful red……but we can’t go down the street.

The colors are pretty even if they do get wet.
