Pure Sweetness

Every March 8th for the past 22 years, my husband has brought me a small bouquet of 2 pink roses and 1 white rose in honor of our first date. He is such a sweetheart, and I am a blessed woman indeed!



Be blessed,
Lea

How romantic!!!!!! A simple pleasure, indeed, but so heartfelt and loving. The heart surely treaures its loved ones, memories, and beauty far more than things, doesn't it! I feel I shared a "simple pleasure" with you today, Lea, and I thank you for it! Buster ate my roses!!!!!

What have you been making in craft land? I just got another COUNTRY LIVING BOOK TODAY FROM A USED BOOK SITE, ITS CALLED"HANDMADE COUNTRY" Do you have that one? I haven't looked at it yet, but I think its a good one.
Been sorting the material that Miss Wilma sent me, getting some ideas.
Hope all is well in your world.

Oh thank you girls so much! My husband is a darling. He actually sat me on the couch and positioned my arms to look just like I was the night he met me. And then he retold the story to my boys about his thoughts about me that first night. Talking about sweet! I still swoon over him! LOL
