Thank you to my neighbor V for surprising me with these beautiful flowers this week!!
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.

Welcome to my blog! My name is Esther and I’m so happy you are here. I’m an avid nature photographer and a daydreaming thinker. My posts revolve around photos of nature’s beauty, homeschooling adventures with my 2 kids, sporadic reflections on my child’s heart condition, Bible reading reflections, gardening feats, and other mish mash things. Hopefully you’ll leave encouraged, pensive, or smiling at the simple things of life. Thank you for stopping by and hope you’ll find some interesting posts to read!

Both are beautiful, but I do love that orange flower. It looks like some sort of cactus; they do produce gorgeous blooms!
It does look like a succulent… maybe a Christmas cactus? It’s a small plant and has produced those bloo.s
already. I hope I can keep it growing and not kill it!
🙏🏻😘
What a wonderful neighbor!
She’s so kind like that! I was feeling down and she surprised me with these beauties.
Very pretty – is it a Christmas cactus?
That was my first guess! I hope I can take good care of it so it keeps getting larger.
Yes, hopefully you can. My grandmother had a beautiful one that she kept for years in her back kitchen where it had a sunny place and had many flowers every Christmas. There are Easter cactuses too. I just looked and compared your picture with a Google image – it could be an Easter cactus too.
Lovely flowers.
