Every September begins a new year for me. I take time to contemplate the past year and pray for the year to come.
I had my special day this last weekend. I’m another year older. The day was filled with love, laughter, and a specially cooked meal for my loved ones.
Gifts that touch the heart are those that I treasure most. They never come with a price tag. They fill your very being with a happiness that is unequaled. I find myself wishing these moments could last forever, but as the clock ticks they are replaced with the hustle and bustle of everyday life. I will bottle away the fragrance of this joyful day. And as my new year progresses, if I should meet with a rough patch, I will remove the stopper to my bottle and breathe in deeply the fragrant memories.
Wishing you all a Happy New year!

I really need to stop and take a moment and think about the joys that have happened to me this past year.. I find myself thinking of all the bad because they keep happening.. I need to remind myself there really is alot more good, that has happened to me.. Hope all is well..
Also, that is a really pretty key..
I've been on a key kick lately..

Bon anniversaire chèrie! Beautiful photo and glad to hear that your special day was wonderful! Your brother's birthday passed on the 22nd but we worked; I had a late Open House and he fell asleep on the couch waiting for me!! Oh well. Love knows no limits or dates. Bisous, Anita

Happy New Year to you! Fragrance can trigger so many memories. Like an apple pie baking in the oven
or a man's cologne.
