Flowers (and hugs) for Leontien

An email during the week from TexWisGirl/run-a-roundranch, as one of several co-ordinators of a surprise blog event starting today, for Leontien Vandelaar of Four Leaf Clover Tales.

Leontien can do with some cheering up we know, while she's working through her battle with cancer.  We wish to offer you Leontien, a super flower-power event, to show you we care, and are here barracking for you from every corner  of the globe.

Purple tibouchinas from my garden in coastal N.S.W. Australia, after heavy overnight rains early this week for you Leontien.  Wishing you the reprieve you deserve, strength and courage, in big numbers.
