Sweet whimsy ...

This little gem popped into my mind this morning ...

There we were in the Witches Garden two weeks ago, Orlando, Anna and I.  All getting to know how it felt to be together anew.

Orlando and Anna were enjoying getting to know each other immensely and chatting away very happily.   The conversation turned to animals and in a quiet moment, I asked Orlando if he had any animals at home. 

Before he could answer, Anna excitedly exclaimed, 'I have!' ... and as I looked at her little face all pink with excitement, eyes twinkly at us both, I asked, 'Have you Anna?' expecting to hear about her puppy or cat or fish ... then added, 'What have you got?'

She looked at me as if ready to melt and said, 'Butterflies, I've got butterflies at my house.'

How sweet is that ...
