I keep on noticing some rather lovely two-digit numbers in the forecast. Sweet spring-like winter days!"For the beauty of the earth, for the glory of the skies,for the love which from our birth over and around us lies; Lord of all, to thee we raise this our hymn of grateful praise. "
Now onto the twenty-nine bit. That's the birthday I celebrated a few weeks ago. And I simply must share with you the sweetest, most thoughtful gift that I received from my husband. He knows I have a love for all things "period drama". Movie or mini-series, give me Pride & Prejudice, Larkrise to Candleford, North & South, and I'm a smiling girl. Imagine the smile on my face when I opened one of my presents to discover this:
Pages of piano music from my favorites! Theme songs, medleys, etc. All spiral bound. And I love me a spiral bound piano book.
So if you stroll by my house to take a closer look at those tulips and you hear me pounding out the theme song from Downton Abbey, North & South, know that it's being played with a smile. Thank you Timothy! (who didn't limit his spoiling and thoughtful gifts to this - but those are for another day).
Enjoy your spring days ahead!
What a thoughtful gift. I just wish I lived closer. I'd love hearing the sounds of the piano wafting across the garden :-)
