Here is my first blog post! It will be short as there is lots to do these days with designing floral arrangements for my website and making gift baskets in preparation for shipping very soon. But today is a very special day because it is our middle son's birthday! He is 24 today and when I woke up this morning at about 6:30 I remembered that 24 years ago I was already in the hospital having given birth to this precious baby boy. Delivery was in the early morning, barely got to the hospital, no IVs because it was "go time" when we got there. Anthony James with his head of thick, black hair was what all the nurses commented on. And today, he is a gentle soul with a girlfriend we like and soon a new job. He is a happy, fun guy with a terrific personality. All our boys live here in town and when someone comes into the shop and his name comes up in discussion, it is gratifying to hear what a great guy he is. That happened just last week when another "football mom" from their high school days mentioned that of all her son's friends, she still keeps up with Anthony. When God gave us these 3 lives to guide, my one prayer was that I could help them be good people. I mean that their hearts were in the right place. Although all 3 sons are different, I have been blessed to be able to say I think they are on the right track.
