Babysitting Flowers

Have you ever had to babysit flowers?  I haven't until last night. Even though it's hard work I will do this again if asked, it's the kind thing to do.  Our neighbor is out of town for a while and she received this beautiful bouquet of 2 dozen red roses for her birthday.  So she told me to enjoy them for her since she wasn't home to get the delivery and won't be home in time to enjoy them herself.  It's hard work, but I think we will manage.
