I'm glad you are staying with us, Pammy! Regarding your quiz, the first person to come to mind was Whittier, but the holiday classic threw me.

[Pamela]

The author is not one who would immediately come to mind, but I'm sure the poem/song is quite familiar...

JUST A FEW HINTS
If you guess the song, you may look up the author!

I KNOW THE SONG!!!

[Lily Rose]

Hmmm...a song comes to mind, but I can't think of the name of it.

[Emma | meadowroselibrary]

Lydia Maria Child?

🎶Over The River and Through the Woods...🎶

[Ruth]

🎶Over the river and through the woods
to grandmother's house we go...🎶😙🎶

Lydia Maria Child

[Ruth]

I can hear Meg's future grandchildren singing..
👧👦👧👦👧👦👧👦👧
🎶Over the river and through the woods
to grandmother's house we go...🎶

All named after us.

[Lily Rose]

You're thinking far ahead, Ruth! I'm not sure Meg will approve! LOL!

[Ruth]

😲-Oh! My notification is slow!
I saw no posts upon giving my answer.

[Ruth]

Hi Dorothy,
Hahaha! Meg sprung to mind going
through the lyrics.
Besides, I'd like to see my name attached
to a child, instead of a pet.😋

🤣 Sorry, Ruth. We had the dog before I knew you. 🤣🤣🤣

Hi Emma,
Why so glum?
Your emoji captures that scene from Little Women,
where Jo disapproved of Meg's marriage prospect.

[Emma | meadowroselibrary]

Oh, you just surprised me with your comment! 🤣🤣🤣🤗💕

Well, we can't change it now...🥺😂

[Ruth]

Emma wrote: "Oh, you just surprised me with your comment! 🤣🤣🤣🤗💕"

Only in jest my dear.
I haven't met many, if any, people named Ruth.
This year I have made new friends with pets
named Ruth.

It's funny you should mention that,
I was thinking of adding a new shelf
called "Books of Ruth", for said titles
and characters. Your novel, excuse me,
the novel favored by you and Emma
will be added.

[Ruth]

My friends,
How was your day?

No apologies, my dear. It's all in fun. 🤗❤

Mine was very good! How was yours?

Emma is correct! I must go. There is a terrible fire of some sort just up the street. I'll check back later if I can. It looks quite bad.

Yay! I wasn't going to guess, but I saw your emojis and new it right away - and it was going to drive me crazy if I didn't guess! 🤣
Oh no! I hope everything's okay!! 🙏

[Ruth]

Good. Quiet, thanks.
I have a question for everyone in the
next room.

[Ruth]

Good Lord, Pammy.
I hope they're all right.

[Pamela]

Ruth wrote: "Good Lord, Pammy.

I'm not sure I'll be online anymore tonight. The fumes from the fire are terrible. I hope we don't have to leave. I'm worried most about my cats...they have such little lungs. I can't believe all of the things happening around here lately. I feel like moving to the wilderness where the worst trouble is wildlife, not peculiar people.😂🤣😃😄😆

[Ruth]

Pammy,
How bad are the fumes in your home?
I hope you won't have to leave.
😄- There's an idea.

And when you come to read it I know you'll love it! The character Ruth is a wonderful person...unlike the character Emma...

Congartulcations, Emma!
Oh, no! I hope everyone's ok! Please do let us know.

Snob.

🤨😂 I love Emma in the end, though. If it's any consolation.
