This is Valentine's Day and here is a wonderful opportunity to heal the heart of a darling little boy.
The baby, Grant Weaver and his mother fell into a fast flowing, freezing cold river on Vancouver Island on January 30. Passersby got the baby out of the water in 25 minutes. He was rushed to hospital where he is making a slow recovery from the ordeal. His mother died. His father remains at the baby's side, night and day.
When I saw the baby's picture in the Times Colonist newspaper, a beautiful baby with his eyes closed and narrow tubes up his nose and down his throat my eyes filled with tears. A fund raising campaign has started. I have contributed. Can you help out, it's easy.

Grant is making progress. Isn't that wonderful? Please help out if you can. Help mend his heart.
This is VALENTINE'S DAY with hearts and flowers and chocolates galore.
Onward to my writing. I'm enjoy writing my Lady Mary mystery. Little gems of ideas pop into my head so I have to backtrack to where they'll fit in. Writing is fun, especially when it's going well, not to much fun when I'm blocked. Doesn't happy often. Mostly when I'm tired and need a break. A fast walk by the sea, breathing wonderful fresh air revives my spirits.
When I say,"fast walk," I mean "fast" for me. I take account of my age and let nature do the rest. I can stop and look for humming birds, the ones that winter here.
The daffodils are in full bloom as are the flowering trees lining many of the streets in Victoria. Absolutely gorgeous.
I'll download the first page of another of my books, either Isabelle's Diary or A Very Difficult Man.
