roses for mama

I should have blogged about this right after it happened, but I think everything about our move made me put things off.

Owen told me at lunch one day that when Dad got home, Dad, Aleida and Owen were going to go to the store and I would stay home. I wasn't allowed to know any more details than that. My curiosity was peaked! After supper, they went to the store while I stayed at home. When they arrived back, there was a knock on the door, and when I opened the door, Owen was holding a dozen red roses!

He wanted to get me red flowers and thought I would like roses best. It was so very sweet! It makes me smile every time I think about it.
