GAGs - GeniAus' Gems - 8 May 2015

I love hanging out in libraries. I was able to spend nearly three whole days at The National Library of Australia in Canberra this week, what made my visit even more special is that I was one of the first patrons to use the new Family Section there. In case you missed my post and happy snaps you can see them here.

As is usually the case I can't remember which posts from the week I saved in Evernote to share with you. I do enjoy opening up my GAGs folder and revisiting the Gems I read earlier in the week.

Here's what I found:

1. Andrew shares the story of a brave girl.

2. Sharn says "I wonder if they realised just how often significant fragments of their lives appeared in the news for us".
