One is real the other is honorary but both made my day

Life is good when you throw out a random comment and friends and family respond in such a way that it actually makes your jaw drop and your heart warm.

First I got a virtual rose (note the yellow color - whee the state flower of Texas) for my desktop from my honorary big brother Ben



Then after a coffee-fix run, I was greeted at my desk by the real thing:



One of my sweet, amazing, wonderful younger sisters had sent me roses. Thank you Kelli.

I forget sometimes just how dang blessed I am to have the family and friends I do. Really really blessed.
