Now I know some people use flowers as an apology ... Especially Men when they have done something to upset their partner ... But flowers bring so many messages and the number one message they always send is 'You are special'!
This week Ed started his course and I have struggled because we have gone from a whole Summer having fun together to barely seeing each other and when we do get time together, having to do course related things!
I know this is just the start of a whole year of stresses, work and very little time together ... And having a bit of a problem with The Green Eyed Monster, I find this really tough especially as the majority of his course are females and he will be spending more time in a day with them than me (Yes I know, I shouldn't be jealous and I'm working on it - but I've had a lot of troubles in the past with men which have caused me to feel this way)!
Anyway, on Thursday when Ed arrived home from his course, he walked in with a beautiful bunch of flowers in his hand! Now to me this little gesture of love meant everything!
It told me that Ed knew how I was feeling and that I was finding things hard, but that he loves me and that no matter what he does in the day he will always come home to me because I am special to him!
Now every time I walk past the flowers, the beautiful scent hits me and it reminds me of the powerful message those flowers have sent me - I am loved and I am special to someone!
So I just thought I would share my appreciation of the beauty of flowers - the smell, the colours, the different types - and the messages they can bring to us all!
