"I Remember It Well" by Breda Mannix McMahon "Once upon a time, in a tiny spot on a far away green isle, a place so small it was called Baile Beagan, meaning small village, a little girl was born. She was like a little doll with dark hair and blue green eyes. Her father was a giant of a man, a cobbler, and her mother a beautiful woman, a country lass raised on the wild southwest coast of Ireland."
