For Louise, I thought you would like this iris, no bugs on them today!
Hope you enjoy yourselves in NS, we'll miss all your comments but you do need to get on with your life and get away from the computer for a while, enjoy the visit to your girls and the rest of the summer but don't forget us and come back in the autumn.
Oh Sue, your photo and your "letter to me" were amazing! I felt like we were on the phone together the way you wrote that! And the Iris!!! Do you know how much I love iris?! From my college years, I've collected things with iris and fleur de lis motif, so this is a lovely gift from you...a *French* iris, even!
I've enjoyed your pictures from awhile back...perhaps when I first felt we'd "met" with you there in the mirror. I always enjoy dropping by to see what you've seen in your corner of the world each day. Thank you so much for this beautiful gesture; see, you didn't know how meaningful it would be! I'm so sorry I wasn't here sooner, but I wanted the time to appreciate each offering and thank everyone; I just couldn't do it all in a day...or even two, it's looking like! This out-pouring has been stunningly overwhelming to me...I have no idea what I did that deserved to be recognized more than everyone else here. It's all about the beauty of this circle of friends, and I love being a part of it. I hope you read my note on my photo today *heart* and in the thread...I want to share a huge thank you with everyone and don't know how else to say I was very very touched. *thank you again* for just being you and sharing the beauty around you!
