These roses are just the most beautiful things! My husband brought stopped at Aldi's for a few things and brought these home. I'm loving them..=). We had a wonderful day yesterday. I got three new books, I'll try to grab a picture to post of them later on. One is exquisite crochet patterns. Another is collaging with fabric. And the third teaches about art using watercolor pencils. Each one just called my name...grin. I love 'hands on' work. Or should I say..pleasure? The last two days have found me spinning my fiber into deep blue/violet yarn singles. I will be ready to ply both singles together soon and then I can knit a scarf. My baby blanket is 3/4 done and we went back to get another skein of yarn and found it was on sale for $1.50. Thats a give-a-way that made me happy. Then in the mail, came my BDay gift from my daughter. A cd & book..."Digital Designs for Scrapbooking". I am one busy crafter....smile. And so blessed. When I was a child and teenager ....little did I dream of all that God would bless me/us with. Never in my wildest daydreams could I have envisioned all the good things he would give. What can I say to all the goodness of God? He is my treasure....my salvation....my song!

This, my heart..=), had its contents gobbled up very quickly. Don't you just love the light bulb reflected in the glass of the table top? I do. We had a very 'sweet' Valentine' week which I really loved. There's a silly smile on my face right now, just remembering how good all the sweet things were.

Amen. And how little we truly appreciate the details that He weaves so well in our lives. Time to stop and smell the/your 'roses'.

Blogging is like a box of chocolates. *grin*
