Exclamation Point

I was not going to write this morning.
However, I went out to the pond to feed the fish, as I usually do and had to share what has happened with our flowers!

First of all, look at this.

It is a new stalk of buds coming up. On Monday it was a mere inch out of the base you see there. On Tuesday 4 inches, and just look at it today!
I thought my kids were growing fast, but this beats that for sure!!

Now, remember those crazy big centers which seemed so odd to me.
They BUST out and become yet another branch with even more flowers!!
LOOK!!
(Bad photo sorry, in a rush here!!)


Now check this out...

As you go farther up the stalk those centers choose to be this beautiful clump of yellow pieces.
Fantastic!!!
I thought you would want to know, so there ya go!!

Wow!! I sure did use a lot of exclamation points today!!!
Well, it is because I am excited!!!
Little things like this in my little world make me a little happy!!!
Okay, a lot happy.
I choose to live life like that, it's just my way.

And ya know what else?? This duo of plants right here makes me happy too!!

They are heart shaped and happily colored and they grow at an unbelievable rate too!!
Hey...
...have a great Friday in your little world too!!
