Stop and Enjoy the Flowers

I enjoy taking our family dog, Sir Carlos, on walks, especially at the end of a stressful day.  In addition to sniffing out the typical things dogs like to sniff, sometimes he just stops to smell the flowers. Even Sir Carlos reminds me not to just stop and smell the roses, but to stop and enjoy all flowers.  This design is called 'Mary Ellen', named after my amazing, beautiful, mother-in-law, who is always a ray of sunshine, and offers a fresh perspective on life whenever I need to talk. The flowers are from her very own garden in Florida.
