matters of the heart...

please enjoy this gorgeous orchid that my dear husband gave me for
valentines day.






















thank you,
mr. dan.
i love you
with all my heart.
mmm
mmm
one of my favorite blogging friends, suffered and survived a heart attack last week.
there is no doubt,
that he and his family are happy and relieved,
that he has been given a second chance at life...........
this has brought back scary memories for me,
of my own husband's quadruple bi-pass,
of five years ago this month.......and his (our) own second chance.
mm
keep your heart healthy
and
always full of
love.

Precious Erin!!! Dear heart, I hope you are enjoying fine weather. We just had a huge snow storm yesterday and I just came in from shoveling the mess! You had sent me a lovely picture several weeks back with the GORGEOUS aqua sled trailing in the snow. I think you said I could use it, but I just want to be make sure....may I? AND, may I snatch it because I think I lost it in cleaning out my emails!!!! SENDING HUGS YOUR WAY, Anita

Your orchid photos are GORgeous and make me want to run out to buy some this instant! Hope your friend is doing well now ... yes, when these things happen it brings up all of our memories and experience. Hopefully little by little we are more healed and more grateful.

Blessings to you Erin!
