Lifes Like That

A very dear friend of mine is moving the end of the week and I have discovered that I’m going to miss her very much.  I will also miss my little “buddie” giving me lilacs.  So, joking around we always said that if she ever moved she would uproot her lilac tree and deliver it to me.  Well, of course that’s not possible (it’s a big tree and the new owners could get a little upset at her and I) so today she did the next best thing and gave me some pieces to transplant in front of my house.  As I don’t exactly have the “green thumb” I talked my husband in to transplanting it for me.  So, I now have a small lilac bush planted and hopefully it will grow (and not become enemies with the lawn mower).

Now every time I look out my living room window, I will be reminded of my friend and my little “buddie”.  It’s not quite the same as having them still living here, but it’s better than nothing.  For this I THANK her!
