No –it was like that!!! That was the plant that Smiley the hermit crab was stuck in for 3 weeks when I thought he was dead! I took it as a sign that he still loved me and somehow made a heart in the leaf for me to communicate with me. Oh …do you think that I am nuts now??? LOL

Welcome, Beth Ann – I’m so glad you linked up today! I hope you’ll be a regular participant on WW!

What a cool picture and an even sweeter story behind it. I’ve heard of tea leaf readers, but you are now officially the first mint leaf reader I know!

Have a fabulous week and hope to see you again soon!

It looks like you used a craft puncher to make that heart… I can’t believe it was just there..of course it could only happen to you…

I know, Jonnie!!! It was a perfect little heart!!! The only thing that would have made it more “me” would have been if it was a smiley face, right???? 🙂 So glad you are stopping by and commenting, my friend!!!
