Quote of the day: I must have flowers, always, and always. ~ Claude Monet
This is the current state of our kitchen table. It is filled with flowers. In fact, when you walk in our home, it smells like a flower store. My friend's daughter is graduating from high school this week, and one of my gifts to them is designing four flower arrangements for the party. You need a lot of flowers to do this and between tonight and tomorrow morning, I hope to transform this haphazard mess into lovely arrangements. The verdict is still out, so stay tuned!
Tonight's picture was taken in
July of 2009, around my birthday. The flowers were meant for me. We snapped
this photo of Mattie holding the flowers and it is one of the photos that
captures the essence of Mattie. Despite being in pain, he was playing, surrounded
by Legos and trying to celebrate my birthday.
If you look closely at Mattie,
you will notice that his arms and legs look more like a tiny branch than part
of a human being. Mattie had lost so much weight and muscle mass while battling
cancer. Yet despite that reality, look at that beautiful smile!!!!!
