We are still young enough to be healthy but have lived long enough to gain wisdom.<br />My love for books started very early, too. I think it's something God puts within us that when nurtured, grows and produces much in later years!Lyndahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12404589772713955710noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5456722259350114571.post-72573282883076275002012-09-18T18:50:59.678-05:002012-09-18T18:50:59.678-05:00What a wonderful display for her to make.
