I got a call that sweat shirts at a local store were on sale for $3. My teenage daughter said, "I could use a couple more sweat shirts." Off we went. As we were leaving the store an employee was handing out flowers. We really didn't know why, but thought it was a nice gesture. The flowers were handed to my daughter, but when we got home she offered me one. I reached into the bouquet to pull one out and out came a stem with 4 blossoms and 2 buds. We both laughed that I reached for one and got 4.
I went to my china cabinet and got out a bud vase. The flowers are just beautiful and sitting in my kitchen. They make me smile every time I see them. A little breath of spring in the winter time.
This morning I saw some flowers that made me laugh. This is how a teenager takes care of their flowers. I present "The Teenage Bud Vase."
