I'm wearing a flower in my hair today--Queen Anne's Lace. Why? Because I have a son who loves me and who loves beauty and who thinks I look extra beautiful with a reminder of his love in my hair. (In other words, he picked it while we were picking up horse manure from the front pasture.)
My mom says her favorite flower is the dandelion. They are the flowers of love...always picked with love, given with love--and often grubby hands. Forget roses and carnations....give me Queen Anne's Lace, chicory, dandelion, daisies and cherry blossoms. And bless the grubby hands that make the offering with love.
