Really Glad for 46 Years


Now I ask you , what could make a woman happier than a beautiful bouquet of flowers for her 46th anniversary? These are not flowers from a florist hurriedly purchased at the last minute, but gladiolas that grew from bulbs that Ed planted. He  weeded the plants, cut the flowers and arranged them himself. The flowers will last for awhile, but the feelings behind them are forever.

Happy anniversary! That's how a marriage lasts 46 years . . .

Please don't think I got this reaction by cutting flowers in the garden Becky walks in daily. The glads were planted in the wilderness garden some distance from the house. She had not been back there recently so the flowers were a surprise.

Happy Anniversary.

The flowers are beautiful, and the bouquet very special.

May each day be a continuing anniversary of the love you share.

Hi Becky,
Happy Belated Anniversary!
I feel the same way about flowers... handpicked is much more full of love and heart than florists pick!
I came by reading about Irene, sorry your garden got some abuse, but it's looking beatiful and uprooted trees are a lot easier to get rid of than cut off trees. We had a spring tree break from way too heavy of spring rain, That stump is no fun...
