Every Wednesday the kids are let out of schools early. I go pick my prince Andrew up and bring him here to spend the afternoon with us. Yesterday, Shelley had an appointment with her hair dresser, and I had the added pleasure of having little prince Zain. It was such a beautiful day. They played hide and seek with M and I took some pictures. I love taking their pictures. They are adorable subjects, even when they don’t smile or are unhappy about some silly thing.
Aren’t they cute?
Now that I have bragged about my little princes, I shall go on to my yard and the flowers. I am so excited about my yard. The flowers are so beguiling, and I just want to spend time on the deck looking at them. The numerous birds, all day long are chirping and sound so happy. The pink Rhododendrons look amazing. Their delicate color makes my heart gasp with ecstasy.
There are so many different azaleas in the yard. White, pink, orange and blood red. Breathtakingly gorgeous. Look for yourself, and be the judge. I am sure many of you have better blooms than these, but for someone from the tropics, seeing such beauty is just truly mesmerizing. the pink azaleas look like miniature roses. Every day, I go to these plants and say, “Dang, you are just as beautiful as you were yesterday!”
And then there is the Martha Washington Geraniums. I saw them in the Nursery, and the flowers looked like folded up pieces of velvet. I HAD to get them!
And finally a lone strong-willed tulip hanging around after every one of its kith and kin has left for the year, amidst the creeping phlox.
