A year of blogging and Great Grandma.......

I missed my blogaversary.......it was the 5th November......I completely forgot........you must have guessed by now, I am going to continue blogging. The main reason for doing so, is to keep a record for my grandchildren.....I want them to know the real me.......the things I care about. Above are some of my great grandmothers treasures.......as you know she lived to 95 and was an elegant and warm lady. She loved to take afternoon tea, walk in the countryside, and sit amongst the roses in the garden. I have a poetry book that she loved. Many of the poems are simple......but sometimes that says a lot more than complicated writings. The following is written by Bee McMullen and is called Gods Highway.......

Some people pass through this wonderful world,

And never look up at the sky;

It's nothing to them that the larks sing there,

While the great white clouds sail by.

It's nothing to them that millions of stars,

Weave a silver web at night.

They do not know of the hush that falls,

When the dawn gives birth to light.

Oh, pity the people with all your heart

Who never look up at the sky.

So many beautiful sights they miss,

As the pageant of God goes by.

I just wanted to say thank you to all bloggers that visit.....I have made many friendships and have been shown so much kindness........If I stopped blogging I would miss the connection I have with so many.......so I look forward to the next year with you all and wonder what indeed it holds.......I wait with anticipation..........
