One World One Heart

Travel the world and see a new place
Go with a smile and meet a new face-
Travel the world, you won't come to the end

Open your heart and make some new friends~~
(I'm a poet and didn't know it!)

  127. Vicki,
    I am a brand new grandma to a little boy who spent his first 3 days in NICU. The wonderful nursing staff helped allay my fears by being kind, loving & gentle with me! As for the baby, he couldn't have been in better care. All is good.
    I've a a great time peeking at your blog. The nests are simply stunning. I can see why you have a backlog. And, please tell the gardner: He's done amazing things with soil, seed and love. Tina

  161. Hello from Massachusetts. Vicki, your blog is so beautiful. I have loved looking at the photos of all the trees and plants in bloom. How wonderful to have a gardener husband! I am so thankful for neonatal nurses. Our triplets were born at 33 weeks (7 weeks early) and our nurses were the best. Thankfully, all our babies were strong and healthy. I am a nurse too. My work was with pediatric hospice. The sad part of nursing but, necessary.
    I hope you will visit me too.
    Blessings in the OWOH journey, Rebecca #393

  192. Hi my dear Vicki,
    ..... lol I thought you might have gone to the carribean ... no, not at all - you are brave sitting at home knitting.
    The winter here is not too bad for the moment - the sun is shining and it is cold... but no rain or snow, thanks god.
    Our friends which are living in New Jersey had a blizzard last weekend with 40 cm snow - urrgh - awful.
    I hate the winter too - im a child of summer *giggle*. And I hope the spring is coming soon - so passionate waiting for.... sigh
    I wish you a wonderful week - keep in mind that you are so blessed because you will have a little sun soon.
    Hugs & kisses
