I know everyone has their favorites when it comes to flowers. Nothing can cheer a person like a bright, colorful bouquet of blossoms. But would you believe that this dry, dead weed from the backyard cheered me just as well! The other day my sweet little Eve came in from playing, and with a proud look on her face presented me with this beauty! It was such a sincere offering of love as she handed it over and said, "Here Mommy." She had actually seen her sister do this many times before (although Grace always gifts me with living weeds!) and wanted to show her mommy that she also could give something beautiful.
Just like the painted Christmas pine cone that still sits on my counter, I think this weed will be around for a long time!
