Just like a life boat when I feel like I'm bobbing around in the ocean, he rescues me. He always knows just what I need. When I was at work yesterday, a lady walked in with this arrangement in her hands and said, "Flowers for Donna". My day was immediately brighter, and all the cares that were weighing on me disappeared.
I kept them right near my register all day, and many customers commented on my beautiful flowers. My response was always the same. "They're from my husband. Forty years and he's still my guy." When asked if there was a special occasion, I simply replied that they were just to cheer me up. Boy, did they cheer me up.
I brought them home and put them in a place where I'll see them all day, every day. When they're no longer viable, I'll have this photograph to remind me just how loving and thoughtful he is.
Thanks for all the encouragement yesterday, too. I could feel it from each of you, and you know how grateful I am. You're the best of the best...and so is my Handsome. I'm one lucky girl.
Beautiful flowers.

You and I both have one-in-a-million sweethearts. I'm sure there were tears when these arrived coupled with a big huge smile. Enjoy them!!
ReplyDeleteHi MA:
DeleteI'm sure you're right, girlfriend. I did get misty-eyed, and was so surprised! People commented on them all day. It really was nice. They're sitting right next to my chair in the living room.
