love in a box

This is what it is like to get
your first bouquet of flowers
from your son...

It is a big box
and it is completely unexpected
and you have no idea at all
who the flowers are from.

You find the envelope
and open it to read the message

and it says:
"Flowers all the way from Stellenbosch
just for you!"


and however big the box is
it is not big enough for the love
that pours out with the flowers.

  10. Thanks for the happy post--it's a great way to start the morning as I wait for my 4-year-old son to wake up. I'll try to daydream about pretty flowers in my future during one of his tantrums today. :)
