When I was rediscovering picture books with my first child, Make Way For Ducklings author McCloskey also had other books I found and had to have- Blueberries for Sal (which I was familiar with) and One Morning in Maine... I believe there was a Mr Congdon, and we had a friend named Mr Condon who had blueberry bushes that we used to

I have tears dripping off my cheeks. We built our house too, so this story rings close to my heart. Scaffold, spindly legs, ladders and all. It warms my heart to hear of stories about dad's and blueberries, as mine is always whistling in the blueberry patch with me too. Their canoe hangs in the barn. So glad they found your canoe.. thinking of you...

my heart was breaking for you! still is a bit that your Grandpa will not be returning. what fantastic memories, i don't know that i could let go of them either. so glad that your canoe was found, much more than the object what it represents. and on a lighter note, your photo makes it appear that your girls are trying to acclimate poor Rosie before they take her out into real waters! hope

Your girls are so beautiful!

I trust you are keeping this is a journal so much much later the girls can take it out and treasure the words and the memories they provoke so the that life on the lake lives on even for their children.. i know you miss it. Time can be so harsh. Miss you. Huggs!!
