Animal stickers! I see that cute lion face in there :) cute kitty!! Hehehe. I enjoyed your journal, it\'s so lovely to read about the joy you get from tending the flowers and fruits and vegetables. Lovely pictures - do the 4 O\'clock flowers have a scent? One of my favourite flower scents is the mock orange, or jasmine (not all jasmines smell the same), and then probably roses. But hey, I like all flowers :)
Lots of love to you all xx

Hi Chris,
Thank you for dedicating a beautiful sunflower to me, Don and family.
You are so thoughtful and kind.
We continue to water our plants and hope they make it during this hot, hot weather.
We are supposed to have a cooler day tomorrow.
Very hot weather here that is unusual for us.
Enjoy your day.
Love,
Angela
