I am thinking of all of you today so much.
I can just see all those lovely flowers, Nick.
Carnations are one of my favorites as well Jari, the look and the spicy smell.
Rick loved the outdoors and taught me to love it as well. (Thus Chris, I love the pics of the trees)
He was a plant person and preferred to give those to me instead of flowers. I love flowers.
Thus I compromise and have flowering plants.
I am thinking of him a lot these days with all that is going on with all my good friends.
My prayers are with all who are going thru death and illness of loved ones recently and all who are dealing with them further back.
Spring and the earth going through rebirth brings back so much of these thoughts to all of us. I pray that they are gentle memories and that the pain, though I know it never goes away, is peaceful in your hearts. This is my hope to all.
