Someone who knows your thoughts before you speak them,
Someone who hears everything you say and never has to say a single word to let you know it,
Someone whose love for you runs as deep as any love can,
Always a kind word, a nonjudgmental heart, a knowing smile.
I felt they were sisters at first but, as it evolved, it began to feel more like a mother and daughter.
"Heartstrings" is on ebay now. : )
all is good, it's been a nice, productive day, the house is clean, homework is done and you've just poured yourself a nice big glass of wine (or a little somethin' on the rocks) and are ready to have a brief but promising date with the DVR.
It's 9:15, the lights are dim...
Husband to wife....
"Oh gosh....I forgot to tell you but, tomorrow is dress up as a save-the-planet superhero. Were supposed to make a cape and be very creative."
"Oh WE are?"
"Yep."
"So what are We doing?"
"Uh, I dunno, I thought I'd leave it to you since you're so creative."
Nice.
But, the little man was happy so,
once again,
all was good. : )
She gave me this sweet award a little while back and I have been ever so negligent in posting!
I know most of you know her but if you don't please take a moment to visit her. Besides being a talented artist and designer of beautiful creatures both enchanting and whimsical she is also a bee keeper, farmer, dancer, singer, writer.....
I can't keep up with her.
But, I am daily inspired by her and I know you will be too.
And, I am supposed to pass this on to six other bloggers but I can't pick just six so...
if you are reading this post then this award is for you!
Grab it and pass it on!
And, have a wonderful week!
