      From Love4you Today

      I hope you woke up this morning with a big smile on your face I hope the sun is shining just for you and the birds are singing their very best songs... I hope your coffee is hot and tastes just right and the cats are purring contentedly, and the mailman waves a cheery hello and there are no bills in the mailbox... I hope just everything goes your way ... I hope everything is well with your world, a place for everything and everything in it's place... I hope you can enjoy all you do and you are complimented on the way you look and you can laugh and talk and share to your heart's content I hope you have all you wish for yourself and those dear to you, and all your dreams come true... At the end of the day I wish you a perfect moon shining just for you, a snug and cozy bed with the softest of pillows and I hope you sleep like a lamb with a smile on your face... I hope you have a perfect end to the perfect day and I hope that every day is just as wonderful in it's own way I hope your day is ... filled with love!~Love,Maria

      From Love4you Monday

      I hope an angel of love visits you today and whispers in your ear that God hears you every time you pray. I hope an angel of peace visits you tonight and touches your soul, inspiring dreams that are as bright as star light. I hope an angel of mercy visits you tomorrow and mends your heart, taking away all of your pain and sorrow. I hope an angel of light visits you every day bringing you endless joy and hope for the sunshine that's on the way~Love,Maria

    • Hug

      From Love4you Monday

      There's something in a simple hug that always warms the heart; It welcomes us back home and makes it easier to part. A hug's a way to share the joy and sad times we go through, Or just a way for friends to say they like you 'cause you're you. Hugs are meant for anyone for whom we really care, from your grandma to your neighbor, or a cuddly teddy bear. A hug is an amazing thing - It's just the perfect way to show the love we're feeling but can't find the words to say. It's funny how a little hug makes everyone feel good; In every place and language, It's always understood. And hugs don't need new equipment, special batteries or parts - Just open up your arms and open up your hearts. Sending many HUGS your way and letting you know how much I care~Love,Maria
