Alexis de Tocqueville on American women:
"For my part, I have no hesitation is saying that although the American woman never leaves her domestic sphere and is in some respects very dependent within it, nowhere does she enjoy a higher station. An now that I come near the end of this book in which I have rendered so many considerable achievements of the Americans, If any one asks me what I think the chief case of extraordinary prosperity and growing power of this nation, I should answer that it is due to the superiority of their women.”

Happy Birthday Regina! Your family is truly an inspiration. :)
btw, "Johnny I Hardly Knew Ye" is one of my all-time favourite songs!

Thanks.....


and yes, Johnnie I hardly Knew Ye is a great song.... part lament, part protest against tyranny. Wish I could have heard you sing it.
