The Umbrella in my Wine
Friends, they're so wonderful.We got the chance to stay a few nights with our friends Molly and Bill prior to our main vacation.
We only get to see them about once or twice a year.
It's not enough.
They used to live with their family in our town, but moved.
Their kids are 13, 10, and 8. Mine are 10, 8, and 3.
The kids got along wonderfully and for a moment I thought, I could have 6 kids no problem!
Molly is a wonderful, hospitable, super-chef of a hostess.
Her hubby a great mountain bike partner for my hubby!
Their beautiful home was filled with fun, laughter, and special memories.
Once or twice a year is not enough.
Friends mean so much.
I still am thinking about them and the fun we had in that short time.
My friend put a paper umbrella stuck to a blueberry in my bubbly.
That was special.
It's that little extra touch that said, you mean something to me.
It may sound silly, but it's true.

the little things mean so much!!
I've never thought of using a berry or a grape to hold the 'brella still! Good one!
