Just in time for Mother’s day, it bloomed.  I planted it with my mom a few years ago but this was the first time I saw the flowers.  It’s beautiful.  I guess I could be sad she never saw it, but I am happy for the gladness it is giving me today  – the first spring without my mom.  I got up early with the sun and started working in the garden or re-potted things inside when it we got some rainy spells.  It was the best way to be close, in her garden that she loved so much.
