From Elizabeth Warren's FB page



On our first wedding anniversary, Bruce gave me a single rose. The next year, he gave me two. Then the next year, three. And now, you can see how long we've been married (40 years today) and how happy I am about that. Happy anniversary, Bruce!

Mr Lake says no one grows roses here. 🤷🏼‍♀️

Restrictions here won’t let us out of the house on the weekends.

Taking brownies to Spanish class.

Could get out to buy a bottle of bubbly.

Best anniversary of our life.

Soon, I hope, Vice President Warren, CatWoman. She has the mind, skills and INTEGRITY the nation needs right now. Not a spambot, just Octafish hoping for a better tomorrow.

Flowers with any kind of scent set off my allergies.

Because they are shop bought!

Now a serious husband would plant 20 rosebushes early on in the marriage, tend them lovingly, feed them, spray them when the bugs show up, prune them, and bring the best roses for the wife to admire, and it need not be a special occasion.

Now, I'm off to polish my halo.

Luvs ya but, Lizzy W!

Elizabeth Edwards. When we sent her roses she had the best smile on her face, just like this. I miss her.

When her cancer came back, we sent her dozens and dozens of roses. I'll never forget the picture of her with all those roses. This picture of Elizabeth Warren reminded me of that. That smile of pure joy.
