Flowers for Leontien

To Sweet Leontien:   I chose my favorite flower,  our ROSES from our yard, to share with you today...   My love and prayers are with you as you travel this journey.  I hope that, by seeing all of the flowers from your friends today,  you will know how much each and every one of us love you and are thinking about you and praying for you every moment of every day.

Much Love to you and your family ---and loads of HUGS just for YOU,
Betsy

    These flowers are just beautiful and a very special way to send good wishes to a fellow blogger. I was unaware of her and her illness. This is one of the kindest gestures I've heard of in a long time. I will add her to my prayers.

    Roses....my all time favorite flower!!! And, I'd much prefer them outdoors instead of in bouquets. Your photos you've shared are fabulous. I love the sunlight on them. Absolutely astounding beauty.

    That is exactly how I end up feeling after seeing beautiful nature, from sunrise/sunset to mountains and sky and at flowers at my Mom's garden. I just walk around, look at them, their details, make picture of them and realize how much beauty there is before my eyes .... and that's how I feel grateful to Go.

    Your flowers are gorgeous, my Mom would love to have them in her garden too :)
