my middle grandson came over this morning to spend the night…

first thing we did was change the display in the living room table… took out the Chihuly bits and put in shells, books and rocks…

he has an artistic streak so it was fun to watch as he decided what needed to go where…

off to the Park, where we had brunch, walked through the Conservatory, and stopped by the Zoo to see if his toque had turned up in the lost and found…

sadly, no toque…

home for a rest and then some roasted lamb for our supper…

it was cooked perfectly…

lovely day filled with special moments…

opportunity…

I’ve been wanting to get some flowers for the office recently, but haven’t had an opportunity to pick any up…

as I was heading to work this morning I got a text from a colleague asking me to pick up cream for the office on my way in…

so it just felt like a sign that I now had the chance to get the flowers;-)…

and so I did…

another colleague has an amazing artistic talent and she took the flowers and made them picture worthy…

I also picked up two small hyacinth plants… left one at the office and brought the other one home…

just love the fragrance when they are blooming… Spring is in the air…

serendipitous…

took this picture of the trees out the back before I left the house…

reminded me of a colleague who we lost to cancer a few years ago… she and I had taken a photography course together and the picture was similar to one that I took at that time as part of our homework…

later in the day I was working on a computer and came across her name…

seemed rather serendipitous…

she had a wonderful artistic streak and a great eye… we worked well together and she taught me a lot… one of my favourite things was how she showed me to add a URL into a Facebook post and then delete the URL once the link had opened up so that the post looked cleaner… a little thing but it makes a huge difference…

a very special woman…
