Hello everyone,thank you so much for coming by yesterday again with your very kind words once more. I really appreciate your friendhip! A BIG THANK YOU TO ALL OF YOU!
As i type now, i am running a high fever. Yeah,the last fort has been taken,I have finally fallen sick myself after taking care of the 3 babies(2 real and one 'imitation') at home. Being a mom is a tough calling,it seems as if you are always at the giving end,its never my turn to receive. Maybe motherhood has made me 'stoic' such i dont really see it when people want to give.
I bought this pot of orchids at a mobile market for $7 yesterday and i love it! My hands were tremblin from the fever and a few pics turned out blur,so i used the watercolour effect to cover up but the colours didnt turn out good. I have posted this in advance from yesterday and I hope you like it all the same. I will visit u over the weekend if i am not too knocked out by the fever.
Have a good weekend!:)

Wow, this is such a beautiful piece on these wonderful blossoms which I miss very much indeed, dear babe!! Really a fabulous sight !! Love the colours, tones, the whole mood, everything about it!! You’ve done a really superb job both in the capture and the processing. Bravo to you, dear tyan!!
I’m so sorry to hear the bug has caught up with you now too. Please do make time to take good care of yourself, dear babe. I really empathise, and can imagine how hard it is for you to do so, with 2 babies + 1 to take care of as well! But I really hope and pray you all will recover real soon. Blessings to you and yours always, dear babe.

Hola chica! Como esta hermana! (That's spanish for Hi girl, how are ya sistah!) Wow...I have missed so much of your life, especially the boys...including your hubby Law. Ian even "looks" different since I last saw him. And yes, I'm still alive - things been rough for me. But here's hoping for a speedy recovery from your fever! Take care, friend, and send regards as always to Law and the boyz as always...B-) Cheers...

Oh honey I am sorry! Geez, it never fails. I think if women knew ahead of time how hard being a mother would be we would all think long and hard about it! I was just having that conversation with hubby yesterday about how I give to everyone, meet everyone's needs/demands but yet there isn't anyone looking after my needs/wants/demands. It is so unfair, and being a mom of three and having a hubby that wants me to be in charge of everything is overwhelming at times. Girl I feel for you, I hope you get better soon, hopefully hubby will take over with the kids so you can rest. Love ya, get better soon!!!!

Oh poor tyan. I am so sorry to hear you've got this same miserable bug. I hope you have someone you can call on to take care of you and the little ones while you're feeling so badly. Please get lots of rest, take vitamin C, and drink lots of fluids. And if you need a doctor, don't wait until it's too horrible to get to one so you can get better again real soon. Prayers and blessings are yours, dear tyan.

Oh my dear, i do hope you feel better soon! The purple is sooooo pretty. I don't think i could resist getting these either, however orchids are way more expensive here, more like 30 dollars :( so that helps in resisting.
I send lots of hugs & if i were near i would visit you and make some soup and hot tea and take your little ones to the park or play at my place to give you some rest.
