Happy Birthday, Pigglett!
She gave me eyes, she gave me ears;
And humble care, and delicate fears;
A heart, the fountain of sweet tears;
And love, and thought, and joy.
-William Wordsworth, The Sparrow's Nest.
That's how he described his little sister, Dorothy. When I read those lines, I felt I understood his thought, and his feeling for his sister. It coincides perfectly with the mixture of protective tenderness and admiration I have for my little Pigglett. This being her birthday week, I thought I'll put them up.
