Oh boy oh boy! I got another LO done for my Circle Journal group hosted by the lovely and talented Andrea.
This one was Jenna's CJ and her topic is "L*O*V*E is." This is a very important topic to me. I am very much a fan of love. In fact, one might even say I love love. :-)
I love my life, I love my family and I love my husband. I have been especially loving him this past week after this story. Glen knows Mary, Tim's wife, pretty good. He met Tim a few times and attended the funeral. Very very sad.
Anyways, I certainly don't mean to be a downer but when these things happen, it stops me in my tracks. I get a bit emotional and become very thankful for all that I have and who I have in my life.
Oh yeah...SPOILER ALERT SPOILER ALERT *** CIRCLE JOURNAL AHEAD!
Since dear Mr. Scanner is still on vacation, here's a snapshot of the two side together. The text on the card on the left (that's Glen's parents on their wedding day in 1952) reads "my true love's heart was made from true love." Corny, I know but this is what it feels like to be loved by Glen.
The journaling on my wedding picture (taken 1984) reads, "Glens parents were as in love and devoted to each other as two people could be. He grew up with love and knew what it looked like. After we dated for one week, Glen asked me to marry him. I said yes. That was 23 years ago and it just keeps getting better!" :-)
In some other fun news, I spent a bit of time today getting some things together for the Cupcake Swap I'm participating in which is being hosted by Tammie. I'm also putting together a care package for Wendy! Good times! Oh and I also started "Eat Love Pray" today. It's good already!!!
See ya, pals!
You really are so blessed.....because you are loved and know how to love, and you love Life :)

I love those pictures so much. The one of you and Glen moves me to tears, you two look SO in love. And what is so wonderful is that after 23 years you two STILL look at each other that way. You are truly blessed in love my dear sister.
And hey, guess what? I love you too!!!!!!!!
