Beautiful Roses....
The last time I received flowers, it was a bouquet of dandellions from my daughter, which I must admit were far more beautiful bunched up in her hands than this beautiful display above! Don't get me wrong, the flowers I am about to speak of meant so much, but there is something about someone picking you flowers and holding them out in their hand, that a florist can't touch...no matter how grand the display. My very dear friend brought Charlie Mae & I these flowers last week, for no reason at all...which is the best reason if you ask me. I was surprised and reminded once again how special the people in my life are. He is a friend who has "adopted" my children as his own grandchildren, until his own kids come around and provide for him the joy of little people. He is a wonder friend and one I greatly admire. He is married to one of my sweetest & dearest friends, and the two of them... are an incredible pair! They have a relationship that everyone hopes for and few achieve. I could go on and on about them, and will perhaps in my next entry... This entry, I want to share how blessed I often feel that I have the people in my life that I do... I am a firm believer that God brings people into your life to fill spots where others have been and moved on, or where others have left open. Perhaps even spots that you have been holding open for that special someone. I am very blessed to have the people I do in my life... SO BLESSED! And as I think about the upcoming vacation to Sun Valley with my brother & sister, I think about how blessed I am to have siblings who I love, get along with & enjoy to know end... BLESSED, I AM BLESSED IN DEED! For all of the complaining we do about our families at times, there is nothing dearer....dysfunction and all! And we are only able to deal with this dysfunction because of the special friends in our life that give us that balance of normal, what ever that is! I am blessed in great abundance....blessed indeed! PS The very wonderful friends I speak of above are Dr. Jake & Cathrine Cambier...LOVE THEM!!!
