Miracles

I have always believed in miracles
At the moment
reading a book that most
classify as a children's book.
Warm and real, packed with
country magic, family love and
people to remember.

In some ways it reminds me
of magic times of discovery,
wandering through my woods at this time of life,
simpler times with my youngest daughter,
dreams I had in past years.

On a January afternoon I smiled
as I read
"the time between Christmas
and spring is always the
longest time of the year."

"Miracles on Maple Hill"
by Virginia Sorenson

Thank you

Going to pass this book on to my two youngest granddaughter's.
They both love to read.   Hope they enjoy it as much as grandma did :)

I finished reading The Hunger Games which is a trilogy for young adult readers and enjoyed it just fine. It is very violent and only for teenagers, but I am sure it will be made into a movie with all the Sci-fi stuff.

Ernestine,

Thank you for letting me know you read this book, and about the walk back through memories that it stirred. I'm so pleased to know you will share it with your grandchildren. Wonderful!
