Oh, you have had a very hard time ...Dear Mariette, <br />Oh, you have had a very hard time this summer with the weather! I feel so bad for you! It does seem strange that the glass would shatter - maybe the heat from the sun expanded it too rapidly after all the rain? We had a similar disaster, but instead of rain, it was ice two winters ago. Every tree lost limbs, broke in half or fell over and our storage shed was crushed. It took us months to clean up the debris that was everywhere and still is in the woodlands all around the house. But mother nature has covered it all with vines and woodland plants and now you can't tell anything happened. I hope she is kind to you after all you have been through and gives you beautiful wildflowers next spring. <br />A Big Hug! <br />xo<br />KarenKaren @ Beatrice Euphemiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08631972741518142563noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1974466215163623524.post-12977036566351199392013-09-04T00:06:53.592-04:002013-09-04T00:06:53.592-04:00Dearest Daniela,
