Sweet surprises


Amber and Ivory

One of the greatest skills in knowing how to be able to give presents. I find it easy to buy gifts for people on special occasions like birthdays and anniversaries...but I often lack spontenaity in my gift-giving.

Fortunately, I am blessed with a husband who knows not only what sort of present to give, but also when to give it. And I must say his timing is impeccable.

When he surprised me with this delicate link bracelet with amber and ivory beads on a day when I was feeling particularly morose, I could do nothing else but smile and smile and smile. And then I smiled some more.

Isn't it lovely? MDH has got good taste in jewellery, has he not? It jangles and sparkles in the light and makes a pretty sound.

And I am reminded once again of the people who love me.
