 Happy Valentine's Day to all!
My husband left 30 minutes ago to go to the nursing home where his mom is recovering from a serious stroke. She has a terrific roommate and good care, but still loves being pampered. I sent him off with a huge valentine bag of candies for the staff, a plant for the front desk, and goodies and valentines for his mom! Yesterday my granddaughter could hardly carry her large tote that carried her goodies for 2 librarians (she helps before school one day a week) and 3 teachers. She's got my "I love holidays" disease!
Wish I could send each of you a beautiful bouquet, a small special candy you love, and a valentine that could offer hope, peace, and tons of love today!
Love to all, ma
