Growing Snowflowers

the prettiest eBay item everI started listing some items on E*bay so that I can afford to get a new camera, and for some reason I found this photo of Piper in my e*Bay file....hmmm, I wonder how it got in there? Sure, some days she can be difficult, but I'd never list her on e*Bay...the shipping charges would be waaaay to high(Craigslist would be better!). All joking aside, I think I took this photo of Piper right around the time I got my current camera (2006)...I just love how green the grass is against the Snowflower...it's like she is a little blossom just waiting to bloom, a little pensive at the thought of a late Spring frost. I was also going to post a new photo of Piper, but she got a whopping scratch on her nose which needs a little time to heal...I mean seriously, don't kids know when NOT to get messed up? I tell you, I'm going to have to wrap them up in cotton wool!

This was taken the same day...look at those bruises... okay, secretly I think all the scratches and bumps and scrapes on my kids are testament to the fact that they play HARD...and I like that...they are not...how do you say...precious.

scrappy hardy Snowflowers, perfect for Minnesota!
