When You Care Enough To...

Today it was a little bit of  this morning, with  this afternoon.

I love checking the mailbox each day.  Most of the time all I get is the same lot of usual suspects.  Junk, bills, catalogs.  But every now and thing, I get a nice surprise.  This week, I got two lovely surprises.  Cards.  A thinking of you card, and a thank you card.  Thinking of you from {{{{{{{Robin}}}}}}}.  Thank you from {{{{{{{Amy}}}}}}}.

 

Aww, Robin.  Thank you.  You are a special sweet heart.  What a pick me up.   And look, there's another butterfly!  They are everywhere!!! 

You rock, my friend.

It's little surprises like this that make my daily walk to the mail box so worth while.

And speaking of the blanket, I found the photo of Phoebe and my Mom.  Phoebe has a very special place in my heart, beyond the baby blanket.  Phoebe will always be my guardian angel.  She rescued me, my sister and my Mom from the hands of an wicked person.   It was Phoebe who got us out of a bad situation and put a roof over our heads.  It was Phoebe who stepped into action the minute she learned the woman we rented a room from was beating me and my sister while my mother worked.  Truly, a friend, and an angel.  My mother's friend, my special angel.

L-R: Phoebe, Mom, me, Lyn, Jim, Unknown male.
