Tulip Faery - Postcard Friendship Friday #326

This is another postcard I bought in Newberg, Ore., when I was young. I loved the idea of flower fairies! This whimsical rendition of tulip fairies is one of my favorites.

I will be having surgery in about ten days.  A little scary, but it will be a relief when it takes place.  May God keep you close to His heart, dear Friends--Happy Postcard Friendship Friday!

A Girl and Her Pal -Postcard Friendship Friday #325

This wonderful card was printed in the United States in 1975. A high school student, at the time, I received this from a pal I'd met at camp that summer.

I love the whimsical nature of the little girl hugging her bouquet of flowers and the cat's happy pursuit of the yellow butterfly. From her adorable dust-covered feet, one can tell she's been barefoot for most of the day.

This card brings back so many good memories. Long hot summers spent playing in the woods, chasing up the trees with my cats, building forts with my siblings and cousins. We truly had a wonderful, magical childhood.

I apologize for missing PFF last week.  I was dealing with a lot of pain that week and ended up visiting the hospital emergency room.  After the tests were evaluated, the ER doctor sent me to a surgeon for consultation on an immediate hip replacement.  I have been momentously distracted. I will try to have PFF up and running each week, but I may not be able to respond to your comments, if it is too close to when I have the surgery.

Please know how much I appreciate your visits.  I especially enjoy the comments you leave for me.  May God keep you close to His heart, dear Friends--Happy Postcard Friendship Friday!

Be Glad! -Postcard Friendship Friday #324

I am reposting a postcard from 2009.  It is one of my favorites.  I received this postcard when I was a teenager in the 1970's. I love the little girl and the artist's style is so exquisitely sweet.  I adore the dandelions growing at her feet--I still pick those puffs of dandys and blow them into the wind.  I suppose the child in me still loves how they float and dance.

Though sorrow crashes into my soul this morning, today is a day to be glad in the Lord and rejoice! How grateful I am that He walks with me on this unexpected journey.

I hope this coming weekend is beautiful for you.  Blessings to each of you dear ones.  Happy Postcard Friendship Friday!
