My dear people,

I wish to inform you of something very exciting and important I am doing ,
at the time this is published I will be going or maybe be at or even just leaving for "Midnight Mass."
There is something , magical about midnight Mass, going in the middle of the night to church, seeing the lights on people's houses as we go, the church's windows all lit up,
the magical feeling I get as i go inside the church itself. And the heart of the Christmas story which seems to really  come alive this night, not that it doesn't at any other time ,but that I really feel as if there are hundreds and thousands of angels in church, all singing.
Midnight Mass is a tradition in my family, I've never gone to church any other time other then midnight on Christmas Eve. I love it.

Maybe Tomorrow.............................

I'll start driving. That's right people driving , you know, when you put the metal things cut out in pretty shapes in a  hole in the vehicle you use to take you places, and turn it ,and away you go! In other words I got my learner license today. I am most pleased with myself as it is not an easy test to do , at least for me. I don't like tests very much. They make my stomach turn acrobat.

Okay so, we (Mummy and I) arrived and I said a little prayer to Saint Joseph of Curpertino  asking him to please help me pass and that the questions would be ones I knew.    Saint Joe delivered and I thanked him very much for helping me , and also my patron saints for helping and praying for me also.
So hopefully tomorrow I'll start driving.

I wish it was in this

Or even this.

 

Probably to help me     assist me in not crashing my parents wish they could give me something like this.

Wish me luck  and prayers and support on this grand new adventure of mine .
I'll let you know how I go.

Favorite Heroines # 1: Anne Shirley. Prt. One.

Hello all! I shall be doing a series of posts called 'Favorite Heroines. It will be posts about my favorite heroines from movies. Some of the posts will be in several parts, like this one. My first part on Anne Shirley. I hope you enjoy them.


How would you feel if you had never known a family or love ?
Imagine how Anne Shirley felt.

Anne , don't you love her smile?

Orphaned from babyhood she has lived with many people but has never had a 'home' as they only keep her for the work she does for them.   She's been in and out of orphanage's all her life and at thirteen dreams of a home where she'll be loved .    She has no friend but her reflection whom she calls 'Katie.'  

Anne and Marilla.

She eventually is adopted by an elderly couple who are brother and sister, Matthew and Marilla Cutthbert .    She makes a friend the same age, Diana Barry, with whom she walks to and from school each day and  they also become 'bosom friends.'

Anne at school trying to ignore Gilbert.

At school a boy Gilbert Blythe calls Anne 'carrots' hinting to her red hair she hates. She becomes angry and breaks her slate over his head.   So we see she has a fiery temper, not her best character trait.    She says she will never talk to Gilbert again.  

Anne with Diana.

At sixteen Anne has big dreams,  to become a teacher and marry the man of her dreams.      She still however likes   to have fun and dream and imagine.     She and her girl friends decide to reenact Tennyson's the Lady of Shallot, with Anne playing Elaine.    She is pushed out in the boat which when it reaches the middle of the pond , sinks. She nearly drowns but, is saved by the person she she would rather had not come along...... Gilbert Blythe!!!!!!!!                 After her rescue she agrees to be friends.

Anne after being rescued by Gilbert.

Next Anne goes to college to become a teacher.    After her graduation , when back on holiday Matthew dies.    Anne and Marilla draw very, very close after Matthews death.   Without Marilla  knowing Anne decides to do her courses by correspondence and teach in the next towns school.
Gilbert however arranges with the trustees to allow him and Anne to switch schools so she may be closer to Marilla.

Gilbert comes and tells Anne of the exchange, she is very grateful to him and he tells her that the only reason  he ever called her 'carrots' was because he wanted to meet her so much.       They walk off holding hands.

Finally friends!

Just to let you know..........

 I shall be removing the blog 'Feeling Feminine" from my sidebar.   I don't read it often , I don't agree with some of the things they say. I do agree that women should be feminine and dress  as temples of the Holy Spirit, but I don't agree with a lot they say, henceforth.  I shall be removing it.  So, if you like it and don't have the URL of it ,get it now . It will be gone from my blog soon.
My site, my right.

Happy Birthday Bilbo and Frodo!!!!!!!!!!!

 Dear Hobbits ,
Today is another of Bilbo's one hundred and eleventy birthdays!!!!!!!!!
We will be celebrating  with food drink and activities in our home.
Here is Bilbo's birthday speech which I found at This Site which has the scripts to all the LOTR's movies :

[Under the party tree, the other Hobbits are gathered.]
Hobbits: "Speech, Bilbo! Speech!"
Frodo: "Speech!"

Bilbo: "My dear Bagginses and Boffins, Tooks and Brandybucks, Grubbs, Chubbs, Hornblowers, Bolgers, Bracegirdles and Proudfoots." [cheers]
Old Proudfoot Hobbit: "Proudfeet!"
[Hobbits laugh. Bilbo waves dismissively.]
Bilbo: "Today is my one hundred and eleventh birthday!"
Hobbits: "Happy birthday!"
Hobbit: "Happy birthday!"
Bilbo: "Alas, eleventy-one years is far too short a time to live among such excellent and admirable hobbits." [cheers abound.] "I don't know half of you half as well as I should like, and I like less than half of you half as well as you deserve."
[There is a dead silence from the crowd. They gaze at each other blank-faced, trying to figure out if they were just insulted. Gandalf smiles.]

Bilbo: "I, uh, I h-have things to do." [fidgets with the Ring behind his back. Whispers to himself] "I've put this off for far too long."
Bilbo: [to the crowd] "I regret to announce — this is The End. I am going now. I bid you all a very fond farewell." [whispers to Frodo] "Goodbye."
[Bilbo puts the Ring on and vanishes.]
Hobbits: "Ooh!"

 May Bilbo and Frodo  both have a happy birthday. now sing with me:

"Happy birthday to you!
Happy birthday to you!
Happy birthday dear Bilbo and Frodo!
Happy birthday to you!
Hip-pip Hooray!
Hip-pip hooray!
Hip-pip Hooray!!!!
