Lucy Maud Montgomery Short Stories, 1909 to 1922 | 
“She had planned to spend a nice, lazy holiday with the new book her father had given her at Christmas and a box of candy.”
Those sound like FANTASTIC plans for New Year‘s Day, and I feel that “regretful peep” at her book!! But I love the plan to brighten someone‘s New Year, anonymously—with such a wonderful result. ⤵️

“I'll tell you what I'm going to do when I'm sixteen, Theodora. I'm going to pay off the mortgage, and buy mother a silk dress, and a piano for the twins. Won't that be elegant? I'll be able to do that 'cause I'm a man. Of course if I was only a girl I couldn't.“
🙄 I definitely rolled my eyes at this. And then the story went on to show just how much a 16-year-old girl can do!! #KindredSpiritsChristmas #KindredSpiritsBuddyRead
