A New Beginning


2014!

There is no one like Anne of Green Gables to pass on a few wise words:

Isn't it nice to think that tomorrow is a new day with no mistakes in it yet?” 

and

“...Isn't it splendid to think of all the things there are to find out about? It just makes me feel glad to be alive--it's such an interesting world. It wouldn't be half so interesting if we knew all about everything, would it? There'd be no scope for imagination then, would there?” 

Welcome to a New Year!

P.S. I have been blogging for five years! Wow! 
What better way to celebrate than having a GIVEAWAY?
So watch in the next few weeks for details and be sure to enter!

  1. I confess that I'm not sure I've ever read Anne of Green Gables. I need to change that. The quotes are wonderful! Congratulations on your 5 years. :)

  5. The perfect words of Lucy Maud Montgomery. I can't wait to read them to Holland Grace one day! I imagine your home to be much like Prince Edward Island, Noelle.

    Happy New Year to you and your lovely family!

    1. L. M. Montgomery possessed a marvelous imagination...After all she gave us the character most of us surely would like to resemble, right?
      PEI and our little island actually might have only one common point: both are accessed only by ferry!
      All the best, Dear!

    1. New pencils and 'cahiers'... I was not an A+ student but my notebooks were always brought up as an example of clean, neat writing to the class! Those were the days! Thanks for the memory Dear!
