Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.
This is the first and great commandment.
And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
Matthew 22:37-40
My handmade valentine for the love of my life |
paired with the sweet dozen roses he gave me! |
A sweet Tea with my friend Marie and Liz a sweet chocolate bar from Marie over at Baking Chic! |
a great set up for our sweet tea from scratch made blueberry, blackberry, and orange scones... used Marie's favorite scone recipe |
Sweets for the sweet. Our valentine gift from my mother in law. always much sweeter when shared |
So cozy and sweet making love so easy to accept.
inspired me to make a handmade valentine in anticipation to the love of life's arrival...he has set up the most sweet weekend for us! will have to share details later...
delivered a sweet baby boy to his grandmother's house and with it a sweet owl that made her day-more on the owls later...
Came home to a sweet bouquet of roses and a cup of coffee paired with the sweet chocolate above. Interesting conversations followed that if someone had recorded it would have been a comedy routine!
Finally after sweet kisses goodnight overtook our eyes and peace invaded our home followed by morning...
On this sweet day three sweet friends met for the last time in a long time... God will bring us back together I know. A bittersweet tea time full of sweet talk laced with sweet sorrow and anticipation. Our Sweet friends Marie and Jon and their sweet baby boys will be moving to florida soon. They will be terribly missed but I am sure their blessings will overwhelm them with love.
Our friendships orchestrated by God will continue to flourish until that day when we will live together forever!
Enjoying it all, taking it all in and praising for the blessings received.
Gracefully Daisy
OH my, now I am going to have to have a good cry. It just hit me that it is for real and I am so so sad. I am so glad we were able to have a last tea time together, it was so so sweet but also bittersweet. I loved our tea times and I am so going to miss them. I have been so blessed by our friendship. The Lord understood what kind of friend I needed and now it is so hard to say goodbye.

DeleteDaisy Marie shared your blog with me again and I was delighted to visit. I love seeing all these great pictures. It really makes me sad though, seeing how they are leaving Ohio now. I am glad for us here, but so sad for you and them. I loved your suggestion of skyping! One thing I am going to miss is seeing the pictures of you all together enjoying each others company. :) If you and Josh ever get down to our area it would be so grand to see you. :)
DeleteSo sweet Elizabeth! Thank you! We can't wait to see you guys! Now I get to see the pictures of you guys! Let's Skype and keep in touch! Thanks for stopping by! We hope it will be soon, our visit down.
