Thanks For Little Things

Jul 17, 2025 | 18 comments

 

Just making sure that our neighbor’s garden is okay…

(5.51 inches high)

Little things mean a lot….like this short sweet glass vase mama found at an antique sale in our village yesterday. Mama had never seen one so short and so cute…and so cheap, haha. Now if only the rosies would have a second summer bloom, but this heat is inhibiting their bravado, whatever that is.

So thankful for all of the dear friends we have made through our blogging. You all feel as if we have known you forever. Merci. You lift our spirits, you make us laugh, you touch our hearts with your comments and consolation about this disturbing world.

Merci.

And thanks for this little flower that popped out of its plant last night and we don’t know its name as we have never had a plant like this, a gift from a friend. What is it, so darling and sweet and delicate?

Love the beautiful short vase – they are rare – usually they’re big heavy things and it’s nice to have something small and beautiful for a bloom or two!

Hugs, Pam

That plant looks like a gloxinia, ts in the same family as african violets. You could google it. They sure have big beautiful blooms!
Such a cute wee vase, for your gorgeous roses!

That vase looks substantial enough not to tip over an spill if Mama puts longish flowers on display in it. Of course you would never bump into things. (We love the picture of you as a Garden Guard too !)

Those are some sweet blooms, that’s what I love about summer is all the flowers. It’s hot here too, but Texas is always hot in the summer. Take care and enjoy your blooms!
