We just found the show. Watched together tonight after our homemade dinner & fudgy tart, and as for petals, we are each other's flowers in life & love. In Valentine's time, single men made better soldiers♥️🙏

On valentine's day, 3 dozen roses actually mean, "I have more money than common sense." If he's got a huge ton of money, that might be ok, but otherwise...

I think it's interesting that we all descend from Adam and Eve. But when you think about it, the nearest common female ancestor is in fact Eve, but the nearest common male ancestor is Noah, as his three sons came from him and we come from one of them, whereas the four wives were likely not related and probably each represented one of the four main racial groups, so we don't all come from Noah's wife, and you must go back further in time to find the common female ancestor. I believe that even secular science has shown that the common female ancestor goes further back in time than the common male ancestor.
