Happy Anniversary

... to Kay and JR

I know you celebrated

and I know you were spoiled

and I know you spoiled each other!

With deepest sympathy ...

It makes no difference the age.

No difference at all.

 

Many say, "well, he/she lived a long life."

 

But to a loved one, that life is never long enough.

Never.

 

We always want that person to be around forever.

Always.

 

Unfortunately, that doesn't always happen.

 

Last month I had to create six sympathy cards

And this month, two.

 

Earlier in the month, John's grandmother passed away.

 

The other day, Steve's father lost his life after a long battle.

 

Prayers for all.

Happy, happy anniversary

To a couple celebrating 50+ years of wedded bliss.

In case you can't read the sentiment inside:

Another year

to create precious memories

together.

Another year

to discover new things

to enjoy about each other.

Another year

to strengthen a marriage

that defines forever.

It was the day of LOVE ...

How romantic to marry on Valentine's Day!!!

Congratulations, Pat and Don.

I know you two enjoyed your day and each other.

I just couldn't resist going with the reds and the pinks

and the hearts!!!!

 

And of course, Valentines.

Did you get one yesterday?

 

Cupid, draw back your bow ...

 

Will you be Mine?

 

Love the old fashioned couple.

 

I LOVE YOU

 

XOXOXOXOXOXOXO

 

To the One

I hold dear

Kisses, aka slurp

 

Be my Valentine

 

With fondest

Love to my

Valentine

 

The Runner.

Poor guy ... he never gets a card from me.

I have a heavy heart ...

Today would have been my mother's 91st birthday.

I miss her more than I ever thought was possible.

She was my world.

 

She taught me everything I have ever needed to know.

But she never taught me how to live without her.

 

That thing called grief?
It never ends.

I'll be going along doing just fine.
And then BAM!

Sometimes I'll be all by myself.
Sometimes I'll be with a group of people.
Sometimes I won't even be thinking of her.
And then all of a sudden, it hits me.
BAM!

It hits me just how much I miss her.
My eyes fill with tears and I'll have to stop to catch my breath.

There is no love like a mother's love.
She loved me before I was born.
And she loved me the day I stood at her bedside as she took her last breath.
That love is powerful and lasts forever.

I miss you, Mom.

Random Acts of Kindness for Valentine's Day

This card went to my friend, Betty.

Left it at her doorstep yesterday while out running errands.

 

I couldn't leave my friend, Beverly, out either.

She's been a good friend for 21 years.

I can't tell you what I wrote inside,

but she will LOVE it.

(Expecting a call tonight or tomorrow from her

because she'll have to laugh with me.)

 

This little bluebird of happiness went all the way to San Antonio

to my friend, Helen.

She can hang her anywhere she wants to

and keep it up year-round.

Also to be hung is her Valentine.



 Next year, I'll start a little earlier.

Love performing little RAKs to those least expecting

... but most deserving.
