PAPER FLOWERS SMELL JUST AS SWEET
Submitted by: Teresa Anderson
I was just recently married on August 6th but before our marriage I lived in Calgary and my fiancé (at that time) lived in Edmonton.
When I was visiting Mike (my fiancé) in Edmonton he had taken me to the
Muttart Conservatory (an inside green house). They had a special weekend
... they filled the rooms with thousands of different kinds of orchids (orchids are one of my favorite flowers). It was so nice to go
and the
smell and beauty of the flowers was absolutely wonderful.
THEN .... four months later .... when I was back at home in Calgary I would receive a love note from Mike. He made envelopes out of paper that
was covered in orchids (he had bought a calendar and made the envelopes out of the pictures from each month).
It was very sweet and touching as he knew orchids were my favorite and
also it brought back the lovely memories of our weekend at the Muttart Conservatory.
He definitely kept the romance alive when we were miles apart!
