Today as I was driving down the street, I passed a stooped over little old man hobbling up the hill as he pushed his bike. He was all bundled up against the cold. On the back of his bike was a basket. And do you know what he had in that basket? A bouquet of beautiful white roses! There was something so "European-ish" about the scene. I wanted to pull my van over and ask him if I could take a picture of him for my blog. But I didn't have my camera with me, and he probably would have thought I was nuts! Anyway, it made my day just thinking that a little old lady somewhere was going to get flowers. I guess I don't know that for sure, but it makes me happy to think it anyway!

that is very sweet!
Don't you wish we could witness more moments like that? There's this saying that goes something like this: "Each day make life so beautiful that it is worth remembering." I try to remember this when the days get monotonous and strive to make life for myself and my family beautiful.
