Two big milestones reached today!
Firstly, I am 24-years-old today! Happy Birthday to me! I'm celebrating with a quiet family party and trying to keep cool in the heat and humidity.
Then, Old-Fashioned Charm has officially reached 180 followers!
Many thanks to all of my blogging friends for your support and encouragement as I continue to blog about "Everything old-fashioned under the sun!"

ReplyDeleteThanks for the insightful comment. I know that we aren't supposed to feel sorry for Charlotte, but I can't help it. I think I feel sorry for her more because she consciously chose to marry Mr. Collins, than because she ended up married to him. It says something about her heart and understanding and also of the position she was in that she had to resort to such an option.
And yes, I've always thought that with a nice houseful of children she will be happier; and maybe (just maybe) paternal pride will make Mr. Collins into a more sensible character. But that's not likely, unfortunately.
Another comment!
ReplyDeleteActually, I wish that Charlotte could have married Colonel Fitzwilliam. Aside from her lack of fortune, it would have been pretty much perfect. But she had to go for silly Mr. Collins. Perhaps he'll conveniently die off or something............
