Flowers

This morning I woke up to Dylan wanting to surprise me. He led me to the bathroom and to my surprise he had went outside and picked these branches from our lantana plant. :) He hadn't added water to the vase, so he pulled them out and then began to say, "I'm really sorry mom, but there is bird poop on some of them". I grinned at him and said "that's ok, we'll just wash it right off".

It really made me think. I loved the beauty but sometimes there is yuck. I've been more sad than normal lately about Lincoln. I love the memory of my son...but it also brings about a lot of yuck for me to process through. Sometimes, I just want the beauty.

The plant is one of the best bouquets I have even been given.
