Excerpt from Treasured Memories for Little Children I have been thinking for a long time of telling you some, for I remember when I was a very little child how happy I was when I could put my little chair close to my own dear mother's, and listen to them from her lips. Those were happy days, when I could scarce contain myself for joy: but many a long and weary hour has passed since, and now I feel, at times, as if it were all a dream, and as if I had never known a mother.
