A tear jerking surprise
Tuesday, 21st April 2009I was completely bowled over yesterday to come home and find a huge box by the back door.
What was it? I hadn’t ordered anything. I wasn’t expecting anything. Had they got the right house? Label check, having dropped all my bags all over the path in a hurry, showed that yes it was indeed for me and therefore at the right house.
I do love a good surprise, and I am always curious and excited when I get one, so as you can imagine I didn’t hang about in opening the door so I could get in and open the box. So excited in fact I left my bags in a heap on the path, opened the door, picked up the box and carried it carefully inside. At this point I should say that the box was 2/3rds the size of me!
What on earth could it be?
Carefully prising open the top of the box I was met by the most wonderful smell and sight of a stunning bright yellow flower arrangement. Mouth now open and tears welling up I carefully lifted them out of the box and hunted for the card to see who was sending me flowers…..
What I found was a lovely message of thanks from Sally and Jon that tipped those tears over the edge and left me speechless.
Sally and Jon, thank you so so much, the flowers are gorgeous and completely unexpected.
Here’s a peek at the glorious yellow flowers in the stunning April sunshine.

Well deserved!
