July 26th is my birthday.LOL!!But here's why I tell you this.Oldest grandson brought me a gift.I felt it should be shared.

It's a picture of a hand holding a buttercup out to a sun beaming down on it.To the side and under it is this poem;God made the roses cause he knew they'd smell so good.               

                                      God made the iris's cause he liked them too.

                                     God knew that one day you'd be born

                                     So God made buttercups just for you.

  I have put buttercups(daffodils or jonniquils) out here for the last 30 years.One day i was leaving for work(2nd shift,2 till10 pm).Grandkids were all in the yard to tell me bye and as i left they all asked if  they could pick some buttercups.I told them yes but,lol,I didn't realise what they meant  till i came home at 10.They had filled the little red flyer wagon full.It was setting by the sidewalk.Stopped me in my tracks.But,LOL,what could I do.Gathered them all up and fillid a big vase with water for my hand picked center piece.Found out later they had already given their moms their bunch of flowers.

  One time in my life that I really just stopped and smelled the flowers.Or should I say,this is the time I realised I needed to stop and smell the flowers!!LOL!!((hugs))
