I quite enjoyed this collection of 'adventures' that Noreen has shared. Many had me giggling, some laughing out loud, and still others had me put the book down for a moment while I remembered similar situations from my own life.
This is a beautiful collection and it inspires me to write down my own stories, to capture those memories for my family.
