Penny McHenry's Quotes To Live By

Penny McHenry, founder American Hydrangea Society, had 2 newspaper clippings on her bathroom mirror.

.
Active, Penny was forever getting into 'pickles'.  At least once a year she forgot these quotes, thoroughly. 
.
Her charm lay in immediate repentance & contrition.  I drove Penny a lot of places thru the years & it was always a thrill when she would begin, "Perhaps I shouldn't have told....."
.
Garden & Be Well,  XO Tara
