Hi Karen! Just catching up a bit. Loved your winter post and seeing your new grand pup!! ;)
ReplyDeleteAnd I love this post - as I love all things vintage. And I"m a hopeless romantic as well. I've always especially loved the french words for miss you and what it literally means too. So perfect!

ReplyDeleteKaren, many years ago, I wrote down the words, Tu me manques, and I've always loved this French saying and have it kept in my desk. I love the Pooh quote too. My favorite of them all is the Corinthians verse, it's beautiful. These vintage Valentines are sweet, and thank you for sharing them with us. My sister loves the vintage holiday cards, and I think I will send her one, as she's been having a lot of arthritis pain in her knee. Such a delightful Valentine post.
DeleteHappy Valentine's Day to my dear blog friend.
