waiting patiently 



{sometimes waiting is exactly what we are suppose to do}




~pink roses = admiration and appreciation~

thank you so much for all of you that shared your love for roses with me in my last post
you all had so many wonderful rose suggestions
I did go to a specialty rose breeder in my area
and they suggested the rose in the image above
{google image} 
it is a good climber, perfect for my area and has stunning blooms
my rosebush name is
 The Generous Gardener
a David Austin Rose

"It is the time you have wasted for your rose that makes your rose so important"
Antoine de Saint-Exupery   

good things come to those who wait

And my high school class just finished reading Le Petit Prince and that line is one of the most important lines to give us a sense of the author's theme. It's the theme of life, isn't it my friend - to wait and it's in the way we wait that shows us our true colors. Now this is a STUNNING rose climber for you! How I wish we could grow that here. I'm excited for you to try this and get your home in cottage condition and to enjoy it all you can. Big blessings to you today as you go to teach, and I teach as well. Much love dear friend. Anita

KORALEE! You are here! I was thinking of you on Saturday as I was doing my gardening for the first time in MONTHS! We had such a glorious day, and I was wondering if you got your climbing roses that you hoped to get? THANK YOU MY FRIEND for coming to see me!
