The painting above is from a Swedish children's book and it was sent to me as a postcard from blog friend Monica at Beyond the Lone Islands https://dawntreader-island2.blogspot.com/.. The painting touches my heart, it speaks of longing and of goodbyes. The boy is holding a goose and saying goodbye. The book is "The Wonderful Adventures of Nils" by Selma Lagerlof.

It was nice to catch up with you this morning! That heart stone is beautiful!!
I bought some bulbs yesterday at Aldi. The ones I planted in the fall are blooming now!!
So happy your camellia survived the big crash. Must have scared it outta it's wits!! I checked out your blogging friend and am following her now. She looks interesting
Very cool heart stone! I like that painting too.
The camelias are beautiful!
Gorgeous flowers and I'm so glad that it survived the tree falling. Anything regarding animals and goodbyes are so sad to me. I don't think I want to know why the boy is saying goodbye!
Blessings and hugs,
Betsy
Your heart stone is AWESOME!
Terra: Love the heart stone and Bounce is adorable, Mikey says hello to Bounce and sends doggie kiss's.
The painting is lovely, the hug of a goose is amazing to see.
Your camellias are beautiful, soon here in Minnesota we will have green and flowers blooming, no snow this winter which is unusual.

Beautiful flowers. lovely painting and wow.. that heart rock! How nice to have things blooming in March. It will be a while here in NJ before anything blooms.
Glad you liked the card, Terra. I'm longing to see some colours here again, so far the only spring flowers I've seen this side of winter are snowdrops...
That stone is very nice or maybe Bounce just makes it look nice :)
Those flowers sure are pretty
The heart stone is so neat....pretty good size as well. Oh my....the camellias are so pink and gorgeous. So glad that it survived and you are getting to enjoy the beauty of it.
Love your camellia and it's good is escaped the tree fall.
The painting of the book, magic, love it...
Do you know the significance of the heart stone display? Was it done in remembrance of someone? Not that it matters, it is rather lovely, as is that beautiful camellia against the dark glossy leaves. Perfect. As for that wonderful illustration, what a delight!
p.s. "Hello" to Bounce!
How I love this natural artwork!
Wonderful blooming bush. Here everything still is grey in grey from the long wintertime.
That heart stone is wonderful. And I love the painting -- a real treasure.
The below-0 freezing and barely above 0 degrees for protracted times in the winder killed by beautiful Camellia and the new camellia as wellI had planted. It took both Gardenias too...Really makes me sad every time I look over there.
Bounce...you look snuggable. I love the heart stone. That surely isn't a natural formation is it?
I love the flowers, they are so beautiful. Yes, the heart I like too and the dog.
Your camellias are gorgeous! And the heart stone must make everybody smile who passes by it.
The heart stone is beautiful. Glad the camellia survived. Such a pretty colour too.
What a beautiful heart stone! And Bounce of course.
I get why you like that painting and wow on the heart stone
I would love to get a better look at Bounce. The heart looks like it was carved very professionally, it is gorgeous. Made straight from the artist's own heart!
What a delightful collection of images and stories! The heart stone at the school is truly remarkable, and Bounce adds a charming touch to the scene. The painting from the Swedish children's book evokes a sense of nostalgia and longing, while the camellia flowers blooming in March are simply stunning, showcasing resilience and beauty. Thank you for sharing these heartwarming glimpses into your world!
Like that painting from the Swedish children's book. Takes me back to the books that I have read as a child.
