family members have been coming in all day. Cousins, aunts, uncles . . . each gets a kiss and a hug as they take off their winter cloaks. There has been much laughter in our house today. Stories are being told in every room as everyone catches up. After supper there will be music. the banjo, fiddle and guitar will fill our rooms with merry sounds as we all sing the songs that are dear to us.
I just love this creation! A home filled with love, laughter, stories and music... You brought this story to life, for it is full of energy and brilliance. Love the format as well... A perfect canvas of the past...
Absolutely delightful!!! Thank you, Emily, I'm so glad we've connected.
I haven`t read all the book, but the excerpts I looked at are ( as expected) excellent, Emily writes superb prose as well as poetry, this is full of life !

You drew me in and I loved the style of this writing. The short chapters make me feel like it is a verbal slide show...a picture of life at home in those times. This was sweet and well done, I think.

This is such a great story...I love the voice you have given the little girl in this book, and the imagery through out was fantastic. Thanks so much for posting this one!

I am no Wendy;
but my voice brings you back to me.
And you sit around my feet,
anxious for a story
or a kiss.
Listening to my words
spinning adventures,
like so much g.. more..
