daily quote for your perusal

Just heard a great song that seems to reference one of my favorite children's books: The Boxcar Children

Give it a listen. If you've read the book, what do you think?

Chorus:
We can find an old boxcar
In the woods to make our home
Make a bed of maple leaves
Sleep with doves on the door
On the sill what we need
Keep our milk in the stream
We can make a broom of weeds
And brush and sweep while daddy's away

I LOVED those books! I read them all and have very fond memories of my friend and I turning the side of her house into a "boxcar" and playing for hours on end!!
