Book Two My Green, Green Grass

Jerri told Andrea the remaining portion of her story. She told her of the manner in which she joined effort with her parents, relatives, and friends to achieve outcomes she never dreamt were possible. At the end of telling her story, Jerri said, "Well, Andrea, I am done."

"Jerri, if you were going to write your story, what title would you give to this part of it?" asked Andrea. "I know. The green grass situation has now been changed. But you are using the changed experience to teach important lessons. So, what happens when the green grass changes?"

"It dries up and becomes hay. And the same sheep that wanted the green grass from over the fence can still eat the hay, only in a different form," said Jerri.

"There you go, girlfriend. You made hay . . . you could say, 'I made hay while the sun was shining," replied Andrea.
