Isn't it lovely? This is called a Sawtooth Oak and I first met it in Birmingham AL. The leaves had me wondering for a long time. They aren't like other oak leaves I know. Then someone helped me connect these funny acorns to the narrow, spiky leaves. You can read more about them by clicking on the photo.

A wee explanation: this website was created as a way to amplify the daily surprise of seeing glory in one small life. The notebook entries represented here are all selected from things actually lived and noted on paper in an effort to live the full life British educator Charlotte Mason so ably championed.
