http://madisonwoods.wordpress.com/ has a weekly challenge with a photo this time,
This is my 100 words, maybe you would like to pop across and join in?
‘Look, there’s a lovely green butterfly and an ugly grey moth’ Beth tugged on her grandmother’s sleeve and led her along the path.
‘I can’t see no ugly moth honey, only a pretty butterfly and a beautiful moth.’
‘It’s dull Grandma’
‘Look real close; see the lovely patterns and different shades of grey?’
‘Uh huh,’ Beth screwed up her eyes.
‘See honey, God made lots of creatures that are beautiful in different ways, green, red, grey, in all shapes and sizes.’
‘Grandma, your hair is all sorts of pretty grey,’ she reached to feel a curl, ‘did God make it?’

What a charming little person. I need someone like that around me at all times. I like how the Grandma instead of chastising the child changed her view point and educated her on recognizing beauty. Lovely. Here’s mine http://remakingme-atiyatownes.blogspot.com/2012/05/friday-flash-fiction-best-hubby-ever.html
Aw, lol. I wonder what her grandmother’s response was to that comment. This was adorable. Nice job. 🙂

Hi,
What a great little story, well done. 😀
Aww, how sweet. This prompt seems to have brought out many child povs. I like yours. Here’s mine: http://melodypearson.com/flash-fiction/may-25-2012-moths/
The innocence of children. A sweet way to teach a very big lesson –
we are all different and yet the same …. all colors, all sizes, all races.
Love it, Gilly. I wish many more would see that because we are different
that we have beauty, too. I’d love to see you write a longer version on this
very huge lesson. You do an excellent job of writing these challenges.
Toodles … Hugs,
Izzy xoxo
Thanks Izzy, you’re a star saying such lovely things!
Thanks for writing this. A lot of wisdom in a simple incident. Thanks also for your comments on my post. http://stonesoupnovelist.com/2012/05/24/a-scene-from-the-novel-the-alchemists-tower/
Aw, nice touch, Gilly. Beautiful depiction of childish curiosity and adult teaching.
And those brown moths are really beautiful when you meet one personally – we had one resting on the wall just outside our front door one day last year.

Ahhh, nice story, Gilly!! 🙂
Thanks Cathy 🙂
Ahhhhh. I have no words how beautifully I believe is this written. I LOVE it.
Really? you are a darling 🙂
Aww, that was lovely Gilly. Well done!
Thanks so much, praise from an expert is great 🙂
Nice job! Love how you included a grandmother and a child instead of a parent. Sometimes that generational gap opens up the opportunity for deeper understanding between extended family members, when parents just can’t get through. Great lesson that we can all keep in mind! ––Here’s a link to my post for the week, hope you check it out: http://moniqueshante.wordpress.com/2012/05/26/friday-fictioneers-the-light-5-25-12/
Lovely dialogue between Grandma and grandchild.
Thank you for reminding us to see the beauty in God’s creation.

Very sweet little story, beautifully told. 😉
Bless you 🙂
Beautiful! 🙂
So beautiful!!
Very sweet, Gilly. Creative idea. I think God will appreciate it too.
Oh, another one with a child’s perspective – seems like we had a similar idea and I love the way the child is able to flit from one interest to another within a blink of an eye – beautifully observed.
I too loved how the grandmother used that opportunity to teach and influence, rather than chastise. Great story – glad you’ve joined us!
What a sweet story 🙂
