Outdoors....



"Little January
Tapped at my door today.
And said, "Put on your winter wraps
And come outdoors to play."
Little January
Is always full of fun
Until the set of sun.
Little January
Will stay a month with me
And we will have such jolly times -
Just come along and see."

- Winifred C. Marshall, January

Oh I want to PLAY AT THE HILLTOP WITH YOU ALL!!!

Dearest, I was substitute teaching yesterday in a 5th grade classroom. I met the most charming little red-headed boy who is DUTCH! HE TAUGHT ME SOME WORDS....words that I cannot even begin to remember or pronounce, but it was SO BEAUTIFUL! He was such a delight, and I just kept thinking of YOU! I told him I had a beloved friend who tried to teach me to say, "Zuster" and he pronounced it for me...wow...IT IS HARD!

Enjoy your January my precious friend, and I too will frolic in the snow and think of all the magic at Hilltop...love, Nita
