We just finished The Long Winter, the sixth of the nine books in The Little House on the Praire series. Oh, how I cried and cried while reading this to the children! How thankful I am for all that I have. Here is the song that they all sang at the close of the book. Wonderful words to live by for us all!

What a beautiful, beautiful poem. We haven't got past book 4 and I've been itching to pick these books up again. I think they will just make me want to move to the country :)
ReplyDeleteWe have cycled through the entire Little House series TWICE in addition to reading a few supplemental books on Laura's life. People tease me for talking about Ma and Pa as if I actually know them. We LOVE those books.
ReplyDeleteThere is a non-fiction book about that winter called The Children's Blizzard. It's a horribly sad book, but it also has very interesting information on how we predict weather! Maybe you've read it. Anyway, I thought of that.
