Birthday and May Day

This has been a week of all sorts of lovely cards, flowers and gifts as I celebrated yet one more year. My daughter, Kate, made me this wonderful card that reminds me that when I am filled up with love there is plenty to share with others. My sister, Nancy, took me out to lunch in Sonoma and my daughter, Porter, treated me to a delicious dinner in Marin. My mantle is filled with cards.... oh, such abundance!

Yesterday, a friend dropped by for a visit bringing a bouquet of very unusual tulips. I took a photo close up of a couple of blooms so you could see their unique and unusual design.

Then, of course I tried to capture their essence on one of my journal pages. I love watching them open to reveal their intricate centers.
