~Thanks for stoppin' by my blog! About myself, I am a fifteen year old young lady, with the hope of someday becoming a wife and mother while serving the Creator. Old fashioned things, farms, and novels have their place in my world, not to mention Medieval Literature of fair maidens and courageous knights. Beth March, Elizabeth Bennet, Elinor Dashwood, and Miss Georgiana Darcy are some of my heroines. I also live alone with my parents, dog, 5 cats, and around 20 chickens. Walking in the woods, writing the suspense, romance, and historical, playing the piano, reading novels, stargazing, baking, and blogging are some of my hobbies, along with our arrival of our beehive. I enjoy just sitting around and listening to classical musical, symphonies, and good old oldies on podunk radio stations. Enjoy your stay, and don't forget to comment! ~

Sep. 10, 2008 - Da Vinci, Butterflies Galore

  While Mom reads to me in school, I usually draw, or if the subject is something I need to read to fully understand, I will. However, this week I have been working on a copy of Leonardo Da Vinci's Bust of a Warrior.


This is a close up of his face...it is still giving me a little trouble, but I haven't been letting it get to me...completely.


I have drawn this a couple times, and decided to try it again. I wonder how it will turn out...and my cousin, the artist, says it looks fairly well, so you know it can't be THAT bad.:)


  Also, as I went out to pick pears from our sugar pear tree out back, I stopped by a little bush that we have, to find maybe twenty butterflies hovering over the almost perfectly colored pink little flowered bush.  I just stood there, and they swarmed around me...almost like in Batman, when he descends into the cave and the bats completely surround him...it had a surreal sensation.

May. 28, 2008 - As Cute as a Kitten

    My beloved cat Peggy had a litter of kittens a month ago, and they were all black, excepting the few white spots on their bellies and necks. They were all so cute as kittens and have grown up into lovely black kittens. We think that there are two males and two females.
This is when they were almost a week old...


Their first trip into the great unknown...grass...


Still checking the perimeter...


Their second trip into the great unknown...the porch...


We have a few names ready, Horatio and Archie (from Horatio Hornblower), and Hyacinth (from the overbearing mother in Wives and Daughters)  for one of the girls...I still have one name for the other girl. You can tell how creative I am in naming things. :)

Mar. 5, 2008 - Wordless Wednesday...Summer Sunset




For a while my cousin and some others have been doing a wordless Wednesday post, and I thought it was a cute idea. I don't know who started it, but I am going to do it also.
Next week, I promise it will actually be a wordless post.
