Flowers Every Where

I've not tried Weekly Winners in a long time, but for more go visit Lotus.

Clematis

This beauty grows in my front flower bed.

The blooms of the clematis often change color, some very markedly through the life of each flower, particularly when grown in the full sun. The pastel colors will hold their color best if grown in some shade. After the flowers are finished, the very attractive seed heads stay on the plant and can make a welcome addition to most flower arrangements. If left on the plant they sometimes remain well into winter.

Flowers in her hair

I am a Snapdragon What Flower Are You?

My first attempt came up snapdragon:  meaning I am mischievous and love to make people laugh.  Which is true.  But I went back to get the quote about the snapdragon and couldn't find it so I re-took the test with the same exact answers and they told me I was a sunflower.  Here is the quote about the sunflower:  "When your friends think smile, they think of you.  There is not a day that goes by that you can't find something good about the world and your fellow human."  Now I love this quote because I could only hope that people would say or think that about me.  My blog name being "God put a smile upon my face" hopefully makes you think of me when you think of smile.  I try my best to find the good in everything.  I have to, I can't live any other way but to do this.  Life is too short and would be too sad without looking for the positive and good in it.  I have a poster above my work desk that is Ziggy running with a net full of stars.  It says:  "Capture all the joys life has to offer."  That is my motto.  

Now I will have to thank Sandy for having this little test on her blog.  Thank you, Sandy!

My Offspring

~Autumn Fires~
In the other gardens
And all up the vale,
From the autumn bonfires
See the smoke trail!
Pleasant summer over
And all the summer flowers,
The red fire blazes,
The grey smoke towers.
Sing a song of seasons!
Something bright in all!
Flowers in the summer,

Fires in the fall!~Robert Louis Stevenson~

These are my babies, how time flies!
