DO YOU HAVE A BIRTHDAY? For the new readers, don't forget TO CLICK on the title!

Today is someone special's birthday.


I don't usually " go public" with my wishes 
but this time I'll make an exception.
This person has put time and effort in learning English. 
She has worked hard over the years 
and has always shown real determination and commitment. 
Above all that's what I would like to honor
So, having said that, here's wishing you
 a very HAPPY BIRTHDAY 
HUGUETTE  MARTEL
Here are my specific wishes,








And I quote …
May your coming year be filled
with magic and dreams
and good madness.
I hope you read some fine books
and kiss someone who thinks
you are wonderful,
and don’t forget to make some art,
write or draw or build
or sing or live as only you can.
And I hope somewhere in the next year
you surprise yourself.
                                - Neil Gaiman

Huguette,   
A special THANK YOU for being such a committed
and dedicated 
 FOLLOWER,


making it worthwhile to maintain this blog


THANKS for your support!


Suzanne

Hi Suzanne,

What surprise this morning when I came on your blog.
Thank you, it touchs me a lot. You are a very spécial person.
I know that you love teaching can you explain to me because I don't understand the word booksand. This word isn't in the dictionary.

I have a other question for you. My new teacher said that we can say I do eat or I eat at the present tense. You what do you think?

Have a nice day
