tulips make me happy.

My favorite flower is a daisy, but tulips come in an extremely close 2nd.  So close, in fact, that I might have a hard time choosing between the two.  I would be happy with either one, really.

Lucky for me.

Back in the fall, while I was away on a scrapbook retreat, my husband (and his mom) planted tulips for me in the front yard, along the sidewalk curve and in the space between our sidewalk and driveway.  It was part of my birthday present but up until a few months ago, I didn't know anything about it.

One day I began to see things popping up through the pinestraw..."what's this?", I asked Jeff.  He said, "Happy birthday!  Again."  Aren't they just beautiful?!





Everytime I look out my front door, I smile.  :)
