Love Makes The Heart Sing

Dennis and I surprised Mom today with flowers and candy. She lit up like a Christmas tree...... this is a too cute picture... She is still having her terrible headaches and sits with a heating pad a lot of the time. She got her Azalea and her balloon with a gift bag full of Ghirardelli Chocolate and Cream filled Truffles! She smiled and hugged us and laughed and touched her flowers for 30 minutes! It only takes a little love to give the heart a reason to sing!

Happy Valentines Day Mom....... You are so loved !

That's the biggest azalea I have EVER seen, and I used to work in a flower shop! Your mom looks very happy. Hope you and she both have been having a wonderful day.

That is precious, and what love is all about.

Denise,

How wonderful that you treated your mother for Valentine's Day. The photos are real treasures.

Give her a hug for me and tell her I think of her often and pray for her and your Dad.

Blessings,
