Saturday, 7 May 2005 - Daffodils

Dear God:

Today, I am thankful for my garden's daffodils.

If you haven't guessed by now, daffodils are one of my favorite flowers. I like them because, when I was growing up in Southern California, they bloomed around my March birthday.

In Colorado, however, they wait until late April or early May to show off their yellow bonnets. This year, they're just in time for Mother's Day.

I don't mind waiting for them. It really doesn't matter if they appear earlier or later. But when they finally bloom, daffodils always make me smile and think happy thoughts.

For this blessing, I am grateful.

Amen.
