in the breeze on mother's day...

Because the desert won't

really allow me to
successfully have this...

I chose this to keep her close to me.

Last year I thought I might never enjoy the beauty and sweet fragance this little flower gives.  I got plenty of beautiful green vines, but hardly any blossoms.

I have been keeping my fingers crossed especially hard this year.





And it has paid off.

The


timing


 was


 perfect.

Every time I walk out to my porch a little smile crosses my lips.
And I take a deep breath.
Because in the breeze there is a whisper...
 my mom's love filling my lungs, my head, my heart
with what I miss.
