When I was a kid, my mother had a friend named Carmen Briscoe.
Every year, Mrs. Briscoe sent a Christmas card that featured a cardinal.
These cards came all through my childhood and into my young adulthood.
No two cards were ever the same, but on every card, there was always a bright red cardinal.
This was all a long, long time ago, and Mrs. Briscoe is gone now.
But last week, I was out walking and saw a cardinal sitting high up in the branches of a tree.
I took a picture of him for Mrs. Briscoe.
So, after all those years of her giving me cardinals, I am giving one back to her.
Merry Christmas
