Roses

You might be surprised to hear me say that our married life has not always been filled with rainbows and unicorns.  Really! It hasn't been all popsicles and cotton candy either.  Stop laughing.

But it is always a good thing to stop and smell the roses. :)

My sweetie had these delivered yesterday.  Twenty-four butterfly roses.  Now my husband is not usually the most demonstrative romantic there is.  That only makes this lovely bunch of fragrant flowers even more wonderful.

It's wonderful to be loved.  And to be shown love, even when he can't be home with us every day.
