aside from tulips and orchids my husband has gifted me… one particular bouquet of handpicked flowers really stand out in my mind… the day after our wedding last year, lots of family that were still in town came over our house for a nice brunch that my sisters & family prepared for everyone… all the kids were playing in the backyard while the adults mingled inside… I remember the kids running in with excitement with flowers they just picked outside… they said they picked them for me, and ran back out for more… so I placed the flowers in a small glass, and took a picture… I not only remember the delicate little sprouts of flowers and weeds that were hand picked with their tiny hands… but I also remember the joyful mood of that day… of that whole weekend… not only did I just marry my best friend… but I had my entire family with me to share in the excitement… just looking at this picture, ignites all of the happiness and joy I felt right at that very moment I took this picture… it’s amazing what feelings a simple photo can evoke… happy Friday!
