The other week, I found these beautiful flowers on my front porch.
No note, no trace of a visitor, just flowers.
If fact, TWO beautiful bunches of flowers.
I've had two empty ceramic pots on either side of my front door for a while, but I just haven't gotten around to putting something in them.
I was a little worried that my neighbor must have gotten embarrassed by me and my lack of 'gardening' skills, but it turns out, that my sister got some on her porch too.
At first I tried to call and call everyone I thought would do such a nice thing. You see, I like to figure things out. I wanted soooo much to thank whoever did this for such a wonderful surprise.
But everyone I asked genuinely told me that, although they would love to take credit, they had nothing to do with it.
I gave in. I guess I don't ALWAYS have to know everything.
I'm just going to enjoy the fact that it happened.
That someone thought of us.
I hope that whoever it was reads this, because I want to say THANK YOU for doing such a thoughtful thing. After having a hard couple of days, it brought some sunshine into my week.
I am blessed to have many people in my life who are caring, and thoughtful, and who love me and my family.
And I am blessed to love those same people.
So, here's to you, our silent gift-giver.
We love you.
And we love them:

People are so nice!
SO beautiful. Surprises are so fun:)
It was totally me that did it. I sacrificed and drove from ATL to Cola just for you! Just kidding. That would drive me crazy not knowing who it was that left those, but at least you have beautiful flowers to fill your pots now :)
i see some other commenter took the credit that i was going to graciously take! oh darn! what a sweet surprise! sure love and can't wait for spring and summer!!!!!!!
Man! It is my dream for my neighbors to be embarrassed of my house and fix something up for me! I've left so many embarrassing things but no one has taken the bait yet... :)
She is SOOO cute!
