sing like wildflowers

My full and kooky life as a homeschooling mommy to 2 great kids, raising a child with HLHS (Hypolastic Left Heart Syndrome), coping with depression, following Jesus, and being much too camera happy.

These bright flowers remind me of crinkled tissue paper.

My picture here does not show the extent of their graceful blooms. I wish I took the picture from a distance to show how they look like they’re floating against the blue sky. But taking flower pictures with kids is major distraction: my attention is split telling the kids to stop ninja chopping each other and to stay on the sidewalk.

But I did notice that its stems and unbloomed buds had fuzz all along it, as well as lots of leaves. I wonder if those factors give the thin stems its stability.

Something to google…first I need to learn what kind of flower this is. If you know, please share.  🙂

Hope everyone has a great start to a new week!

      It’s awe-inspiring to see the details in nature; such meticulous care for each flower, living thing, etc. And the creativity of it all. God shows us a glimpse of who He is through nature. And yes, more blooms will appear. I may have to start planting something again, although my black thumb kills most plants.
      Take care and enjoy spring…

    I love California poppies. Your picture captures their graceful style.
