April!....Already









April is one of my most favorite months of the year. It's so beautiful, filled with a warm weather and beautiful flowers. I look at the world and think, Wow, God made such a beautiful world. It amazes me that some one believed it just appeared out of no where.


Today is my brother's birthday, therefore, we went out to eat dinner to celebrate with him. Then we came back and ate German chocolate cake after a chorus of "Happy Birthday". Yummy! *mouth watering*



Spring Song by L
ucy Maud Montgomery

Hark, I hear a robin calling!
List, the wind is from the south!
And the orchard-bloom is falling
Sweet as kisses on the mouth.

In the dreamy vale of beeches
Fair and faint is woven mist,
And the river's orient reaches
Are the palest amethyst.

Every limpid brook is singing
Of the lure of April days;
Every piney glen is ringing
With the maddest roundelays.

Come and let us seek together
Springtime lore of daffodils,
Giving to the golden weather
Greeting on the sun-warm hills.

Ours shall be the moonrise stealing
Through the birches ivory-white;
Ours shall be the mystic healing
Of the velvet-footed night.

Ours shall be the gypsy winding
Of the path with violets blue,
Ours at last the wizard finding
Of the land where dreams come true.


I love this poem it lifts my spirits to the highest heights. Lucy Maud Montgomery is my favorite authoress. I adore her.



So I took the Anne of Green Gables quiz and shockingly, I was Anne. I'm just kidding. Anne and I are so a much alike it's almost scary. The only thing is she has red hair and I do not.

Rose, I love your new look and especially your header. I might need for you to make me one very soon.

You are very much like Anne; one of my favorite people.
