~ A Packet of Seeds ~

Grace and I just finished reading a most darling book called, A Packet of Seeds, written by Deborah Hopkinson, illustrated by Bethanne Andersen.

This picture book tells emotional story of moving West, leaving all you know behind. Grace and I really enjoyed this book. I know several of you have little girls who love pioneer stories, so I wanted to be sure to let you all know this lovely living book is out there!

"She says friends and flowers are a lot alike.
No matter how bad your troubles,
they gladden your heart."

Wwwwaaahhhh... I want a girl!!!! lol! :) Seriously, I would love to have a girl to share these types of things with. Don't get me wrong, I don't want to trade in my boys, it would just be nice to have a girl too. But, I've got to get my boys straitened out before I can consider another child. That is the last thing I need to do, bring an innocent baby into our mad house! lol! :)

I'll look for this book as it sounds like something my daughter might enjoy. I like this subject as well. The westward movement is fascinating to me. Thanks! I'll pray for Grace.
