Love notes


Ever opened your lunch, a book, a cupboard and found a love note?  Just something simple like, "have a nice day", or "do well on your test"?  This is a love note supreme that will last forever.  It makes me wonder how thrilled she was and how often she peeked under the table just to relive the moment again and again . . . you can find this love note (table) at abode!
