Sweeties

Okay, I've been gone and you're wondering where? Sadly, my sweet father-in-law passed away but at the very ripe,wonderful age of 95. His death was in New York....so on the road again. My husband really took it well and we had 2 wonderful experiences while there. First, DH had reconnected online with a boyhood friend awhile ago but they hadn't seen each other for over 40 years. Dennis literally took buses and trains in 95degree heat and came to visit while we were there. A sweetie.
The second true sweetie award goes to my son who flew up from South Carolina out of respect for DH and I. A total surprise and heart stopping shock when he walked in. He had never met my father-in-law due to distance circumstances but came anyway. What a boy/man! I have done something right!
I am surrounded by sweeties....a good life!
Speaking of sweet, how fabulous is this heart from Denim and Pearls? Vicki has a great sale going on until July 31st.
