Groundhogs whistle! See how this one's mouth is open? He was whistling!
A couple years ago, Ella was visiting on Groundhog Day. So we learned about groundhogs and made some from card stock and popsicle sticks!
“Turn your face to the sun and the shadows
fall behind you.”
Maori Proverb
"Be patient, then,
brothers, until the Lord's coming. See how the farmer waits for the land to
yield it's valuable crop and how patient he is for the autumn and spring rains.
You too, be patient and stand firm, because the Lord's coming is near."
James 5:7

Great shot of the Groundhog and great fun and learning time with your grand daughter .
Love that groundhog photo, Ginny! I love these animals, they are cute. Here in Canada they pick up the groundhog and put a hat on him. LOL!
Growing up I had a friend whos birthday was on groundhogs day so I always know when it is.
I like Ella's cute little groundhog
Love the crafting projects!! What a cool share.
As for the Groundhog Day...I never paid much attention to it. Especially if it sees it's shadow or not since the outcome is always the same..."6 more weeks of winter" or "6 more weeks 'til Spring"
Fantastic captures of your neighborhood 'hogs too Ginny.
they are soooooooo cute and i know they are pest, but i sure would love to see just ONE... have never seen one except in photos and i think i saw one in a glass enclosure in a park. these are amazing to me... i like the card board you did with Ella ..
PS....I had to come back. I forgot to ask you this in my comment before...
Do you have an adoption update?
I had no idea early spring was predicted a mere 17 times!
Cute groundhog crafts :-)
Ginny, does groundhog bites? They look so cute.
I love your ground hogs - all of them!! So you know what our ground hog did not see his shadow - so spring must be coming - right?
Our local (Atlanta) groundhog predicted early spring and I hope he is right :-)
Those are great captures of groundhog, especially the whistling. Didn't know they whistle!
The groundhogs on popsicle sticks are very cute!
Sweet photos of Ella, very creative. Enjoyed the photos of your groundhog also. Didn't know about the whistling.
That old tale has been around along time. In my opinion, the ground hog has nothing to do with the weather.
I used to hear them called whistlepigs!
Cute photos of groundhogs. The tale is just interesting. I wonder where it originated from really.
I think i had heard of that supersition before. :)
Guess what Ginny...today is the First day of the Chinese/Lunar calender. :)
I have always had a soft spot in my heart for groundhogs, even though my papaw hated them lol. He said they always ate his garden.
Well---I heard that he saw his shadow --so we'll have 6 more weeks of winter!!!! (Didn't surprised me at all.)
Guess you don't see Ella nearly as much these days as you used to.. She's all grown up now, isn't she? What grade is she in?
Hugs,
Betsy
groundhogs are so cute! it looks like you and Ella had fun. :)
These groundhogs are so cute. They really made me smile. Thanks for visiting my blog today. I wouldn't consider myself a 'world traveler'. I like being at home too much. But I do travel quite a bit compared to many other people ;-) Have a lovely Wednesday.
Dear Ginny, I feel bad for these poor little groundhogs. There is so much pressure on them to predict the weather!!!
Not even the weather on t.v. gets it correct!
Beautiful proverb; thank you for all the encouraging words you always post. xoxo Catherine
love the project you did with Ella...ground hogs get a bum wrap each year...LOL
Can you believe it saw it's shadow? Oh dear me...I'm ready for Spring, but God will send Spring when it is time! Ella is sure good at making projects..this is cute
Have you seen this fantastic movie?
