We do some of her "Mother Daughter" things. Anne is one we are looking forward to, but I doubt it'll be on Friday. At 13 B is just too "scheduled" [cue dramatic music] to spend a Friday night with M.O.M.Hopewellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02510172065585770709noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-143485269626703118.post-13627853829640541202009-09-14T16:35:37.724+10:002009-09-14T16:35:37.724+10:00This one's a goodie.

It pretty well describes me on one of those days when I see those connections between things we are studying...I'm going to write a blog post about what inspired us today...<br /><br />"Isn't it splendid to think of all the things there are to find out about? It just makes me feel glad to be alive--it's such an interesting world. It wouldn't be half so interesting if we know all about everything, would it? There'd be no scope for imagination then, would there?"<br /><br />And this one makes me laugh. People often say this about my girls. I'm sure it's because they have been read aloud to with living books for so long. It has really expanded their vocabulary:<br /><br />"And people laugh at me because I use big words. But if you have big ideas you have to use big words to express them, haven't you?"rachaelnzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17750543424225301783noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-143485269626703118.post-22954595468025484232009-09-14T10:07:34.251+10:002009-09-14T10:07:34.251+10:00Fantastic movie!

I love it! <br /><br />I love Anne's dramatic phrases, and my favourite part is when she's attempting to apologise to Mrs Lynde. She does alot of fast talking in the middle of her apology when she says sorry for calling her 'ugly even though it's true'.

I must refresh my memory! Anne is so delightful.<br /><br />I'll never forget reading those books for the first time. It was the first year I came to live in Japan, I was 23. I found a little niche in a department store with a small selection of books in English. They had the first four books of "Anne" in hard cover, and for a very good price. I had never heard of them before (thank you public education), but bought the first one. <br /><br />After devouring it I went back the next day for the rest, and there they sit on my bookshelf waiting for my daughter to pass the "romance is icky" stage ;-).Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09508033779758406137noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-143485269626703118.post-33643975750126775052009-09-13T07:24:51.276+10:002009-09-13T07:24:51.276+10:00Yes I love ...
