Hello Sunshine!
Finally! Ladies and Gentlemen, our ONE and ONLY Sunflower has bloomed!
My sweet children planted at least 24 sprouts in the backyard. We ended up with one, uno! One solo little (getting bigger) sunflower. But. Let. Me. Tell. You. My kids are so excited about this ONE sunflower! It’s amazing the sense of accomplishment they feel. This beautiful flower started from a lowly seed. A seed that they planted. They watched it grow and they are amazed.
Now for my Sunflower:
Izabelle is my flower! I love her hair. I know. It’s probably ridiculous to take a photo of a simple braid but it is beautiful to me. The fact that she let me braid her hair is even more beautiful.
Have a SUNNY day!

I tried several times to grow sunflowers. That stinking bunny kept eating them before they could get to any height at all. Argh. I love your sunflower! And I think it is cool that you took a picture of your daughter’s hair. I wish I had thought of that when my daughter was younger.

How pretty!!! I love sunflowers - and it is awesome to watch kids get excited about something they did with their hands, Kayla is that way with her tomato plants, lol! And, her hair is gorgeous, it just screams out “play with me!!!”

What beautiful hair! I would like to learn how to make a braid like that, I can only do French braids.
