my cast:
a younger photo of Claudia Anastasia
an older photo of Annabelle Ingrid in more elegant attire
these are not the most accurate to Annabelle's appearance but this one may be my favorite, although Annabelle actually has dark auburn hair and hazel eyes
i am sorry but I am having trouble finding photos for the boys.
don't forget to check back every tuesday for a new chapter!!!

vi
her favorite animals are soft kittens, bright colored birds, deer, and horses.
vii
her favorite foods are strawberries, cherries, picnic sandwiches, and irresistible rolls and jam.
viii
she is very stubborn inside, though she doesn't really think of herself as so, and she loves to make people laugh and tell jokes here and there, but maybe not as much as her mischievous brother Felix.
ix
she loves beautiful things, like dried flowers and weathered letters and typewriters, and she loves to run and play and imagine as well as the other children of Averdeene
x
she has a gentle, pleasant little way with children, and she unconsciously tries to be like her mother, and is more like her than she thinks.
she loves to make new friends and is always looking for new adventures on the horizon, for she is an explorer by heart.

QUOTES FOR THIS BOOK:
i have traveled through madness to find me.
—Danny Alexander—
“In the depth of winter I finally discovered that within me there lay an invincible summer.”
—Albert Camus—
prequel:
“I’m not brave like you. Not really,” she
said.
They spoke quietly then.
They stood on the dock, breathing in
the evening, as it was one of the last
evenings like this. The lake turned a
sort of tainted gold as the sun fell
away. On the water, she saw her own
life. Tainted. But maybe still
beautiful in its own way.
Slowly, light painted itself on the
water, casting itself down like a sad
sigh.
Moments like these were spoken in
whispers.
“But, you’re Annie the Brave.”
Annie the Brave.
My eyes opened. My fingers felt the
keys beneath them. Another night spent
at my typewriter.
But I couldn’t have slept.
I needed to write.
I lifted up my head and my eyes focused
on my paper, still waiting for the
right words to come.
I couldn’t think clearly right now, not
with my dream still fresh in my mind.
Oh, this dream. Why did it keep
occurring so? It wasn’t a happy dream,
though it appeared to be. In fact, it
woke me in tears everytime, every
morning. I didn’t really know why. It
just came and never stopped.
Sometimes, I think I drift too far back
into the hazy memories of my
childhood. The blurry summer
afternoons that will always mean
everything to me.
But will one day fade away.
This dream I had brought back my past
memories, fresh and anew.
Maybe it because his death still
lingered in my thoughts.
My heart still ached for him.
For the one who thought me to be brave.
I blinked my eyes and took a deep
breath, anything but steady, but still I
tried.
And pushing away all other thoughts I
began to write.
