and the winner is....
Lucy Watson
Lucy Watson said...My favorite book/s were the Little House on the Prairie series. My mom bought me the box set when I turned seven and I devoured them within a month. I read them, in order, time & time again growing up. I read all sorts of other books too, but especially liked those with several books, like Ramona Quimby, The Littles, and eventually the Anne of Green Gables series. I loved Anne and Marylis, and how Anne and Gil went from fighting to falling in love down the line. But, as a shy child, growing up with only a few close friends, I connected more with Laura Ingalls and her tight knit family. I wanted to roast a pigs tail, to make a corncob doll, and to have a waist like Ma's that could be circled by Pa's two hands. :) As I grew older, I couldn't wait for the day when I'd meet my Almonzo and get married and have children together. My dreams of a tiny waist fell by the wayside, but my "Almonzo" and I, after years of infertility, now have a cuddly 18 month old baby girl through the gift & blessing of adoption. I can't wait to see her fall in love with reading and good books too!Congrats from Sarah Jane who wrote:
I chose Lucy Watson as the winner. The main reason being that as a child, reading books about motherhood only made me want to be a mother more too. I would dream about the day I got to run around with my kids. Infertility struck me as well, and after three years, we were able to conceive. Addie came followed by Ian only 12 moths later. It was such a blessing, but at the same time, I will never forget the ache that comes from thinking I may never have kids. So, I chose Lucy since my heart just reaches out to her...but like I said. I HATE having to pick. I just love that books serve to teach and inspire children to be better adults...whether it's being a mom, or a better friend, etc. It is so inspiring to hear so many lovers of children's lit!
