Visiting a Sunflower


At the first glance, this may seem to you to be just a sunflower! But to me, this was a gentle reminder of what it means to LIVE!

My brother saw that the birds had been dropping seed from the feeders that hang off of our balcony porch, overhead. My step-dad had planted new grass in the front yard, but the birds had a different plan as to what would grow there!

Trevor started watering...........

Soon, we had sunflowers! This was the first one to bloom! I heard that this flower decided to show the world its petals, that next morning I went for a visit.

What did I find?


The most perfect flower!


I came inches from this hummingbird!


Joy!


I also was landed on by this swallow tail butterfly!


New life is on its way!

It was here that I was reminded that life is about the simple joys. I went to visit this sunflower but walked away with so much more! It was a great start to my day to say the least!


Cheers!
