A Blessing


I'm a lucky lady. On Friday, to kick off the weekend, I arrived home to see this pretty bouquet waiting for me in the kitchen. Thanks to the Irish, and the celebration of St. Patrick's day, a couple of these beauties had been dyed clover green. Now, I'm not Irish but I'm always happy to celebrate! This week I've been rejoicing with the extra daylight - like the light that was streaming through my kitchen window behind these flowers. And when my husband does a little something for me just because...Well, to me that's better than finding a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. 

Especially when there are sunflowers involved.


"Having a place to go ~ 
is a home.
Having someone to love ~
is a family.
Having both is a
blessing."

  1. Very pretty arrangement - never occurred to me to dye the flowers (other than Queen Ann's Lace).

    Have a Blessed Day!

  6. I agree with with Ida - wonderful way to tie it all in!
    I wonder if the florist was Irish. :) Dying the mums was perfect.
    Enjoy your day!
