Anything with roses calls to me.
If they are pink, they make my heart jump.
So to receive this gorgeous rose-covered teapot in the mail made my birthday very special.
It was from a dear friend, Cathy, in Arizona.
She sent it all the way to Massachusetts at a very
large cost! ($18.00. Ouch)
Another friend Dolores, brought over a perky bouquet of fall flowers. So, so pretty!
There were many phone calls, cards and other gifties, too.
This basket of darling gifts was from my daughter, son-in-law and granddaughter.
They included gift cards to most of my favorite places! So thoughtful!
My daughter had a pumpkin cheesecake ready for candles (and eating), too!
Fall is a great time to have been born and every time the season rolls around, I remain glad to be alive!
WHAT DO YOU FIND TO BE THE BEST ASPECT OF BEING ALIVE?
Happy happy birthday! I definitely feel that connecting to ourselves, others and nature is what defines a wonderful life. The mind/body/heart connection to all things. Happy Fall!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely tea pot. Wish I were there to share a brew with you! Happy Birthday, although the wishes might be late!
ReplyDeleteFall is surely a good time to have a birthday, Susan. Your pink rose tea pot is so nice sent to you from a special friend. And pumpkin cheesecake......I'll have to try that sometime! :)
