This bouquet looks so pretty on our kitchen table. Don sent me these flowers for Opening Night. I said to him, “They’re pink!” He replied, “Of course. I asked for pink flowers.” I think he gets me. Ah, flowers. I dream of them, of Spring, of working in my garden once more.
I have been fortunate to receive some lovely presents in the mail and I am long overdue in acknowledging them. The play and its demands took over my life for a while. My sincere apologies! I won a giveaway from Sandy Babb at Quill Cottage. Sandy is a gifted artist. I am a devoted reader of her blog where she shares her life and her creative process with us. She has the most wonderful studio. This is what I won – made by Sandy, of course.
That exquisite pink baby shoe was created by Sandy. I hope you can see the detail. Sigh. I am in awe. She also made the tag, with a sweet bootie attached. It says “Snow” by the way, not ‘now.’
Signed by Sandy. And it came in this box. Perfect for a lamb and sheep lover like me.
Thank you so much, Sandy!
I won a giveaway at Nan E’s Bubbles of Joy. The Valentine’s Day theme is an indication of how late I am in posting this! Nan sent along all these goodies. That is Nan’s original artwork on the right.
Thank you so much, Nan! You are a talented artist, indeed. I am honored to have one of your creations.
A friend of mine ordered a copy of Don’s CD. That sweetie sent something along for me:
Lace! And a sweet angel. Thank you so much!
Thank you friends for these lovely presents. What a lucky girl I am!
I’m feeling slightly better today. Still stuffy and coughing, but better. The snow is melting around here and I can actually see grass. We had a big old rainstorm on Sunday and the sump pump in the basement was working overtime. We’re supposed to have another big rain on Thursday. Hopefully, it will banish the rest of the snow. Spring…are we there yet?
I’m behind in visiting everyone – hopefully I can catch up in the next few days.
Happy to hear you are feeling better. I am even more happy to know you had Magnolia sweets and flowers to cheer you!
Those flowers are Gorgeous!!!…
Hey, little pink lamb – so happy to touch base with you and see all your happiness missed you! Jennifer jennsthreegraces

My daughters said they can see grass again, too!
Hi sweetie,
loved the gifts you received. Everyone is just wonderful in our blog world aren’t they?
I hope you get to feeling better soon. Marshall and I are still having some breathing problems from our bronchitis and we are both very hoarse…Neiggggghh!! I’m relaxing eating a Cup of Noodles (yuck) but it always makes me feel better. Luckily my taste buds are off!
Deanna :D

Claudia, what beautiful flowers and gifts you received! And you certainly deserve it!
It is so exciting to see bare ground again. The end of winter is finally in sight.
I was excited to receive an email from Don with info on how to order his CD, which I’ll be doing in the next day or two. Amanda downloaded We’ll Get Along (the owl song) a while ago. She loves it :)… Donna
Perfect pink posies to say I love you and “job well done”. He does love you well. And, we all think you are great.
All of your pretties are just that – so pretty. I know you will enjoy.
That baby shoe and lamb box are just too adorable!
