  • Bertie's New Year - A Cozy Bedtime Story (Rebroadcast)
    Dec 31 2024

    Welcome friends! I hope you all had a safe and joyful holiday season.

    As we step into the new year, I want to take a moment to thank you for your unwavering support as my family and I navigate my daughter’s illness. Your kindness and encouragement have been a source of strength and inspiration, and for that, I am deeply grateful.

    From the bottom of my heart, thank you.

    May 2025 bring you endless happiness and fill your days with the things that bring you the greatest joy. Wishing you a year filled with peace, love, and all the blessings you deserve!

    Tonight, we’ll embark on a journey of relaxation, gently preparing both mind and body for a peaceful and restorative sleep. I’ll be sharing a delightful short story by one of Canada’s most cherished authors, Lucy Maud Montgomery.

    Known for her beloved Anne of Green Gables series, Montgomery’s writing is a masterful blend of vivid imagery and heartfelt nostalgia, making her stories perfect for this reflective time of year.

    As we welcome a brand new year, I’ve chosen to rebroadcast Bertie’s New Year, a charming tale that I hope will bring you comfort and joy as you drift off to sleep.

    Happy New Year my sleepy listeners! And may you have the sweetest dreams the whole year through! Cheers to you all!

    Your friend,
    Joanne
