"I didn't think about its being wrong to go in and try on the brooch; but I see now that it was and I'll never do it again. That's one good thing aboutme. I never do the same naughty thing twice."
Oh how I wish I could say the same thing. That I never do the same naughty thing twice.
"I believe you are telling me a falsehood, Anne" Why is it we say lie and she says falsehood? Doesn't falsehood sound much less condemning?
Sooooooo, Marilla finds the brooch. And Anne gets to go to the picnic and return home "completely tired out and in a state of beatification impossible to describe."
And the ice crea, was sublime.

Oh, can you imagine, to be 11 yrs old and never have tasted icecream?! Wow. We are so spoiled. Icecream is nice we all like it, some love it but can you imagine tasting it for the first time as a young person fully capable of communicating your feelings. Hmm. We're just spoiled. Not complaining but trying to put myself in her shoes. I wish I could experience icecream for the first time and remember it. I guess that's why we take such delight watching our babies try that first bite of....icecream...cake....pickle....fill in the blank, to experience it with them.
