The sunflowers surprised me!!! awww! The first 2 sunflowers i found blossomed were right in my moms peace flower garden. i went over there quickly today because i saw a tomato plant needed my support. i supported the tomato plant with support sticks and a support stake and then checked the garden areas and i saw 2 smiling sunflowers peaking at me! peekaboo sunflowers! i see you! oh my! those sunflowers are so very cute!!! theres a tall sunflower and a small sunflower and the way they blossomed together! its wonderful sight to see! These sunflowers had some rough times earlier this gardening season. Theres 3 of them growing together and they survived harsh rains and winds and the sunflowers needed support often but they continued to grow. their journeyss continued! and now on this sweet day after such a severe weather day yesterday these sunflowers welcome in a new day with new hope and new sunflower smiles!
