Last summer there was an exhibition of children's literature at the New York Public Library. I took lots of pictures and planned to do a post about it. But other things came up and the post didn't get written. But I saved the pictures and to celebrate the sixth blogaversary of Buttercupland I am featuring my friends from Pooh Corner and the wonderful poem, Now We Are Six.
A.A. Milne celebrates being six with the thought, "But now I am six I'm as clever as clever. So I think I will be six forever and ever." I don't feel especially clever, but I do feel very good for six years of blogging. Six years! On a cold day in January 2009 I didn't dream the wonderful things that would come with blogging and I won't begin to predict the next six years -- at least! Many thanks to the fabulous friends around the world who have enriched my life more than I can describe. It's been a great six years, and I raise a toast to the years to come.
We can't have a celebration without presents and I'm doing a giveaway. It's not the usual, but rather a year of six -- for six years of blogging -- surprises. Six times in 2015 I'm going to send a surprise. It may be a holiday card or candy or a book or some other treat that catches my eye. Just leave a comment with an idea for a surprise and you're in the giveaway. You don't even have to be a friend of Buttercupland, but don't you want to!
More than ever, thanks for visiting and take very good care!
