Winnie the Pooh

It's the birthday of the humorist and children's book writer A. A. [Alan Alexander] Milne, born in London, England (1882). His parents ran a private school for boys, and while Milne was growing up, one of the teachers his parents hired was H. G. Wells, who encouraged him to be a writer.

This Winnie the Pooh quote reminds me of Isaac's non-stop playing. What a joy it is just to sit back, watch him , and get a glimpse of that enchanted place again. Many thanks to Grammy for the help this weekend.

"Wherever they go, and whatever happens to them on the way, in that enchanted place on the top of the Forest a little boy and his Bear will always be playing."
