Dear, dear, DEAR friend Sharon. You have words that melt my heart. How on earth do you do that??
I know that the same words from someone elses fingertips would not be as sweet. Why? Because as soothing and melodic as your writing is, the fact that I hear it in my mind, spoken with your voice, and imagining your smiling face, puts that extra touch of love into it.
You wouldn't understand. You only know you from the inside. You take you for granted. You don't know how it feels to be loved by you. You don't know how special you are. So you'll just have to take my word for it.
You are special.
Lovely story and photos!
