A Delightful Month!

"November is the most disagreeable month in the whole year," said Margaret, standing at the window one dull afternoon, looking out at the frostbitten garden."

"That's the reason I was born in it," observed Jo pensively, quite unconscious of the blot on her nose.

But, as Beth notes in the next paragraph, if something pleasant happens, November can be a delightful month! For me, it's a month of parties! First, my birthday (the 8th), then Libby's (the 17th)--not to mention, Auntie Gail's (22nd), my first friend Gigi's (18th), and of course, Louisa May herself (November 29th--it was her father Bronson's birthday as well) Scorpios rule!

Speaking of birthdays, Happy Birthday to my totally chic, politically savvy, gorgeous goddaughter Maria (Gigi's daughter) !
The girl has it all--looks, brains, style, and personality plus! Can you tell I'm proud to be her godmom? Her latest accomplishments include hanging out with Barak Obama and probably talking him into running for president (he announced the next day) and appearing in Teen Vogue (she's fierce!)
