When I was about 5 or 6 years old, my friends and I made little paper baskets that we filled with garden flowers to take to neighbors.

And making baskets from construction paper and filling them with flowers. Those were the days.NCmountainwomanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00615765649828716560noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-764237570467034909.post-9290337200864990482017-05-01T04:43:04.962-04:002017-05-01T04:43:04.962-04:00favouritefavouriteMiss_Yveshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11558587966129386283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-764237570467034909.post-64215715488065476862017-05-01T04:41:17.948-04:002017-05-01T04:41:17.948-04:00Yes, sending lily of the valley is traditional in ...Yes, sending lily of the valley is traditional in France for this day.<br />Have a good "premier mai"!Miss_Yveshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11558587966129386283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-764237570467034909.post-3210240843652847902017-05-01T04:37:23.414-04:002017-05-01T04:37:23.414-04:00I am very moved and pleased!
