About the names

Quick explanation of Annette's and Josie's names:

Annette: Main Character in Treasures of the Snow. She chose this one.

Josie: in Jo's Boys. We suggested this to her, and now for the first time, she's reading it. She says she likes her.

OK, so you do the same thing "Jo March" does with changing names? That's a good Idea....if I ever got a blog I should do that. LOL
I would prolly be like...

Margaret Anne
Erin Adelynn
Or Charlotte Kate
Something like that! :P

Rebecca said...

OH, and I have seen Treasures of the snow. My mom's name is LAnette so that's near. Her real name though. :P I ain't givin' last names, ya understand, I am sure. :P

Marina said...

I like Margaret Anne the best! ;)

Rebecca said...

hehe, So do I! My middle name is Ann, Rebecca Ann, but I like it with a "e" better.

Unknown said...

Oooh, Josie!!! I was wondering if that was where you got the name. Josie is my fav character in Jo's Boys and Little Men, especially when she helps Demi out in his....um...courtship of pretty Alice :P

Marina said...

Oh, no!!!!! Not Alice...I think he never should have married her...

Olivia said...

Yes, I like Margaret Anne. It's a pretty name.

Unknown said...

What?!??!?!??!??!?!??!?!? I LOVED Demi and Alice!

Something tells me we've already had this discussion before :)

Rebecca said...

I might have done Jo March, but....already taken! Boo-hoo. Just kidding.

Marina said...

Jo: Yeah, I'm afraid we have...

Olivia said...

I think I like Demi and Alice together. :)

Marina said...

But Demi's GOOD, and Alice is GOOD. Why can't at least one of them be...evil?

Rebecca said...

Because good and evil don't belong together! :P

Marina said...

ok, then one of them needs to be somewhat-wicked.

Olivia said...

Gab, a lot of couples, especially in books, are good and good together. You have to get used to it! You can write a book where all the couples are good and evil.

Rebecca said...

Ohhhh! I love that new pic of your sis Josie! How sweet! She is a dolly!

Marina said...

Thanks! I like it too!

Marina said...

Oh, and to Vivi: If you insist...

Olivia said...

That was for her first communion, Rebecca. We got to dress her all up. It was fun.

Rebecca said...

What's communion? I think I've heard of it...it's something to do with being catholic, right? I wouldn't know, I am a " 4- point" calvinist, meaning we do not believe in the once saved always saved or predestination

Rebecca said...

What's communion? In our church it's just drinking the "wine" and eating the bread if you are saved.

Rebecca said...

And I asked twice....whoops. I thought it didnt go through the first time! My bad!

Näna said...

Haha! Okay, I had so much fun reading the um, message board here:D

Gotta read Jo's Boys... actually I've never read any of the Little Women books.

Marina said...

;) Yeah, I know.

Olivia said...

Really, Nana? You should! I really like them, but ask Gab and she'll probably not recommend them. She doesn't car for LMA's style...but still, read them.

Näna said...

I keep meaning to, but for some reason never have...I did enjoy LMA's Old Fashioned Girl and Eight Cousins....so it's nothing against her style....you know how you get a sky high pile of books? That's me....and little women never seems to make it to the top of the list:D But I will...maybe on our vacation...
