April Showers....

Due to the trauma and drama of yesterday's April

storms, Tuesday Trivia will be today's post topic.

April---

The birthstone is the Diamond--In ancient

folklore, diamonds protected the wearer from

enchantments as awell as attacks from enemies.

Some say the having the diamond for your birth-

stone isn't that fun. But I say "they are still my

best friend." :)

This month's flower is the Daisy. Opening and

facing the sun, yet closing at the day's end,

characterizes how the daisy was named.

"Daeges-eaye" or "days eye" from the Old

English.

The zodiac signs are Taurus--The Bull-

patient and reliable.

Aries--The Ram-Named for the constellation

of Aries.
