Better than Roses

We don't usually do a lot of decorating,

card-giving or gifting for Valentine's Day.

Still, there are a few friends in my life

who are alone or going through challenging circumstances

that I wanted to acknowledge.

So I hit the holiday aisles at the supermarket this morning.

They were very disorganized AND relatively depleted.

Still, I felt happy with these purchases.

Cards have been sent to our grandkids (all out-of-state),

and hubby and I have plans to celebrate each other later in the week.

Meanwhile, I'm comfortable and blessed by the relaxed atmosphere

in our home

which is FAR better than a dozen roses to me ♥
