Prose With
A View

Growing up in Scotland my father was always drawing my attention to the simple things in life, a wildflower, a sunset, the swallows on the wires preparing for their winter migration.
He made up stories for my sister and me and encouraged us to take an interest in many things such as, gardening, fishing, exploring, poetry and anything of good merit.  Later in life I would take pictures of these things but they were not quite as good as being there. In my retirement I hope to recapture these things and experiences.
And so on Feb 14th, 2018 is the birth date of Prose With A View
“It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye.”  Antoine de Saint-Exupery

Spending most of my life as a dorm parent at a boarding school in New England, USA has left a wealth of stories of many students.
As I write this Blog it is my way of saying “Thank you” to the students and colleagues with whom I have spent 38 years of my life. Like my own children they have brought
smiles to my lips and Joy to my heart. Raising children can also bring hard years and tough times but like most moms I choose to remember the best. I retire from my role as Dorm parent in June 2018.
