Good morning Westheights,

May the Fourth be with you! Sarah was full of glee when she realized the FYI newsletter landed on today. We hope that this week is full of wonder, grace and beauty as you go about your life’s busyness, and may you find pockets of rest amidst it all. 

Riddle of the Week 

Only one colour, but not one size,

Stuck at the bottom, yet easily flies.

Present in sun, but not in rain,

Doing no harm and feeling no pain.

What is it?

Reply back with your guesses, but for those who can wait, the answer will be in next week’s newsletter! Here’s some of our weekly announcements
