“A sap-run is the sweet good-by of winter.
It is the fruit of the equal marriage of the sun and frost.”

Quote for the day
Since we will be studying another poem by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, Hiawatha, I thought this quote might be in order the moment I saw it on another blog here. Stillness. That has certainly been missing in my life these last three whirlwind years. Wait for God. I come to the garden alone while the dew is still on the roses...This poem speaks to cobwebbed corners in my mind. I need to meditate and have more...stillness.
"Let us, then, labor for an inward stillness--
an inward stillness and an upward healing;
that perfect silence where the lips and heart are still,
and we no longer entertain
our own imperfect thoughts and vain options,
but God alone speaks to us,
and we wait in singleness of heart,
that we may know His will,
and in the silence of our spirits,
that we may do His will and do that only."
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

Quote for the day
I found this quote today it is one of those things people always say you know ..."the kids are so lucky to have someone to love them"...no I reply it is me who is lucky I get so much love from those little ones. Well here is a quote that sums it up really well.
John Paul II said...
To adopt a child is a great work of love. When it is done, much is given, but much is also received. It is a true exchange of giftsWednesday, August 17, 2011
Quote for the day
August
August brings soft, quiet days
for carefree summer fun
for storing up sweet memories
And lots of summer fun.
