My grandmother used to say "the worst of your worries never come true"...it would soothe. I don't know if it is true, but when we can't control those things anyway, it does help settle the stress.<br />Hope your mom continues to improve...and your "one" shot flower came out beautifully. Might print and frame as a reminder of how to stay calm when the invariable stress comes along.Simon https://www.blogger.com/profile/03844538179633976411noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2930407577200839023.post-85199473580675524212012-06-02T14:54:27.588+01:002012-06-02T14:54:27.588+01:00Zena, what a beautiful image so vibrant & full...Zena, what a beautiful image so vibrant & full of life!
