Is this similiar to mercury glass? I have never seen this before, but just love it. Having more seems like a good thing. Hugs, Kathleen

Hi Melissa, First I want to tell you that I love your silver piece, I can see why you would want to add more to your collection :) I also wanted to thank you for visiting my blog and becoming a follower, I am honored that you liked my lil blog enough to do so, but also because I was able to come visit you and become a follower on your wonderful blog! It is a wonderful place to visit and dream! I like you have been married for 21 years, infact we just celebrated our 21st anniversary on New Years Eve :) I plan to visit you often and I tend to go way back on old posts so....don't be surprised when you see comments from me for things you posted about long ago lol it is just means I truly love your blog :) Besos, Rose

That's a good one!!! Those are hard to find anymore and that's a particularly nice one.

Hi Melissa. I've been wanting to stop in for days, and stupid life stuff keeps getting in the way. Hate that! (ha-ha).

It sounds like we have a lot in common with your dad and my mil. I'm happy to hear he's content. It must be very scary for you knowing that he might not recognize you one day. I will definitely keep you and your family in my prayers and so appreciate that you said a prayer for me. Your comments made me feel less alone and it meant so much.

I'll hope you'll stop by next Monday for Miracle Monday if not before.

Hugs and love, Tracy :)
