extraordinary gifts

Marmee March:
Oh, Jo. Jo, you have so many extraordinary gifts; how can you expect to lead an ordinary life? You're ready to go out and find a good use for your talent.
Tho' I don't know what I shall do without my Jo.
Go, and embrace your liberty.
And see what wonderful things come of it.

I heartily agree with Marmee March about my own daughter.

I hope I have the grace and strength to say such words to Heather if she ever feels the need of hearing it.

Good words. I don't know how any child could hear them and not be comforted.

I miss the previous style you had, it's only slightly embarrassing to be reading a pink blog at work, but oh well. It's the words themselves that matter and those I do greatly appreciate.
