“And Polly didn’t think she had done much, but it was one of the little things which are always wanting to be done in this world of ours, where rainy days come so often, where spirits get out of tune, and duty won’t go hand in hand with pleasure. Little things of this sort are especially good work for little people; a kind little thought, an unselfish little act, a cherry little word, are so sweet and comfortable that no one can fail to meet their beauty and love the giver, no matter how small they are. Mothers do a deal of this sort of thing, unseen, unthanked, but felt and remembered long afterward and never lost, for this is the simple magic that binds hearts together and keeps homes happy." ~Passages from An Old-Fashioned Girl by Louisa May Alcott
