Had a visit from my step son and d.i.l. Jacquie today. They brought me an early birthday present because, (and some of you will remember all the anguish I had about her last year.) they are going to be away for two weeks holiday in Portugal when we get back.

So for my birthday and our wedding anniversary, they have bought some beautiful yellow standard roses (2), which we all planted inthe garden together. And the words in the birthday card they gave me were so moving,i started to cry.

    Aw, dear Joy, so happy to hear your good news on all accounts. You most certainly were wonderful doing all you could to help and comfort Jacquie last year. What a lovely way for them both to say thank you.

    Love

    The happiest people don't have the best of everything. They just make the best of everything.

    If you can lay down at night knowing in your heart that you made someone's day just a little bit better, you know you had a good day.

    Im afraid I don't know the history of your story, but a lovely story it was. Roses are beautiful. I gave my elderly neighbour a rose bush when he was ill (which he named Lady Caroline) and its still going strong now.

    Its always lovely to receive plants and flowers, especially to provide loving memories.

    Hi Joy,

    How lovely! I havent been on much in the last few months, but I do remember your postings last year, and the suffering and stress you were all going through. It was delightful to read this posting :)

    All the best to you and yours.

    Jackie xx
