Several months ago, I referenced Davy Keith in a conversation and my Younger Blossoms didn't know who I was talking about. He's one of the twins whom Marilla later adopts in the Anne books, by L.M. Montgomery.
"I've failed as a mother!" I wailed.
And then we dove into reading Anne of Green Gables aloud, because we must start at the beginning and we must hear of all Anne's adventures from the books where it all began.
The Anne books are all long and that's a bit daunting to me when reading aloud, but we enjoyed a chapter a day during lunch clean-up. These books are still as fun and heart-warming as ever. The entire series is one of the most well-worn series on our bookshelves.
About a month ago, we finally finished reading Anne of Green Gables aloud and a little idea sprouted.
