And before us was
the dream of spring.
It is always safe to dream of #spring.
For it is sure to come; and if it be not just as we have pictured it,
it will be infinitely sweeter.

“You see, Prince Charming is coming tonight. He came long ago, but went away & forgot the pathway to the castle, where the princess was weeping her faithful heart out for him…“Oh, Miss Shirley, what is that in #prose?”
Anne laughed. “an old friend of Miss Lavendar’s is coming to see her tonight.”

There were plenty of other islands in sight..There was one little group of islets far off to the west which they called the Fortunate Isles. At sunrise they looked like a cluster of emeralds, at sunset like a cluster of amethysts

“This has been the most beautiful day of my life,” Anne said. “I’ve FOUND my father and mother.Those letters have made them REAL to me. I’m not an orphan any longer. I feel as if I had opened a book and found roses…between its leaves.”

“They went for long tramps through the exquisite reticence of winter woods and the silver jungles of frosted trees, and found loveliness everywhere.”

“...I had a splendid evening planning out our garden and choosing our seeds and plants in the catalogue. Just where the biggest drift is making, behind the summer-house, we are going to have a bed of pink asters…I love to plan out summer days like this, in the midst of a storm.“

It was what Susan called a streaky winter...all thaws & freezes that kept Ingleside decorated with fantastic fringes of icicles. The children fed 7 blue-jays who came regularly to the orchard…Anne sat up o' nights to pore over seed catalogues in January & #February

“Diana’s birthday is in #February & mine is in March. Don’t you think that is a very strange coincidence? Diana is going to lend me a book to read. She says it’s perfectly splendid & exciting. She’s going to show me a place back in the woods where rice lilies grow.”
