My Valentine Story

The nurse from our school brought some flowers up to my room that had been delivered to the school for me. I said "I wonder who these are from". One young man spoke up, "They're from the nurse and she bought them at Wal-mart because I saw her there yesterday." I guess I didn't need to look at the card to see that they were from my son. It was funny, so a little laugh before the little tears for the flowers. Days of emotions, you gotta love em.

How sweet and thoughtful!! I'm glad you were able to enjoy the flowers even with the tears. You are special and we all know it - thankfully your son knew to show it to you today!

When you told me this tonight at church you amazed me at the smile you managed through your tears. I know you miss Bro. Joe so much. God has a way of sending smiles into our lives when we do not think we will ever be able to smile again.
