A flower's appeal is in its contradictions - so delicate in form yet strong in fragrance, so small in size yet big in beauty, so short in life yet long on effect. ~Adabella Radici
Bread feeds the body, indeed, but flowers feed also the soul. ~The Koran
On Thursday 27 September Ade and I had our 4th wedding anniversary. We've been together for 8 years and 5 months altogether. On Thursday the flowers pictured above were delivered. The first flowers Ade has ever given me in all the time we've been together.
He doesn't like giving flowers because they die - very true - but they do make me feel special and it is sooo lovely to feel special. Thanks hon.
This quote is for you Ade, but don't let it put you off:
Why do people give each other flowers? To celebrate various important occasions, they're killing living creatures? Why restrict it to plants? "Sweetheart, let's make up. Have this deceased squirrel. ~The Washington Post
Happy Anniversary :)

Happy anniversary, best wishes to you both as you start your fifth year of married life. Instead of flowers, he could have given you linen or silk (traditional 4th anniversary gifts) or electrical appliances - the modern 4th anniv. gift. Next year is wool (traditional) or silverware (modern).
I only just received a dead squirrel for my 33rd anniversary, so you have a long time to go before that happens!
Hey congrats hun - they're beautiful :), digging the squirrel quote. x
Happy Anniversary!! (Albeit belatedly).
Ade, the flowers look beautiful and worth every penny you spent.
