Flowers for Melody - Wrapped Emotions

I first found Slurping Life through 5 Minutes for Moms two months ago. I found myself drawn to visit again and again. Melody has a way with words and photos that I admire. Each post is just a hint at the depth of her character. When she announced that she was going to start a new blog, Wrapped Emotions, I knew I would be a part of it. I could hardly wait for the first challenge. I didn’t care what it was, I was going to do it. I already trusted Melody that much. I was not disappointed. Some prompts were easy and exciting for me. Others were a true challenge that left me unwrapped. And no matter what, Melody was there to praise and encourage and cry alongside.

I’ve met some wonderful women through WE. To some I can relate completely. Others give me insight to perspectives that I would never have experienced otherwise. I deeply respect and care for each of these dynamic women. Even more so, now. They have overwhelmed me with their eagerness to participate in this impromptu challenge.

When life events prevented Melody from posting a WE prompt last week, I was relieved for her. I wanted her to know that it was ok and that we understood and were not offended in any way. But I wanted to do more. Another comment? E-mail? She already had so many. I already had it in the back of my mind to do something with flowers if she ever drew my name as a guest blogger. Suddenly it all came together!

So, without further delay, here, Melody, is your very special delivery from your WE friends!

The original prompt is here.
