Day 7.5 A New Tradition

Here are my flowers for this week.


There's a short story behind them.

A few years ago, my husband decided that I should be honoured on my children's birthday--I was the one who did all the hard work, after all! So, he decided to have the children get me flowers on their birthday. I love it--especially as my husband loathes "commercially made up" special days like Valentine's Day and Mother's Day. So, I get flowers 2x a year from the kids instead. It all works out.
These are from my son who turned 10 on Sunday.
