Day 210, 7/29/2011

A tiger lily blooms in the yard. 

I inherited these bulbs when we moved in to this house, and so far they have been impervious to my inattentiveness. Some day, my goal is to have a garden full of these type of self sufficient yet aesthetically pleasing plants. I have too much to do and the summer is too short for high maintenance flowers. Yay for fireweed!

It is fitting that this orange delight should choose to open today, because it’s my beautiful daughter Kayla’s birthday, and her favorite flower is a lily.

Happy birthday sunshine! You are a luminous person, wise and strong. No parents could be prouder.
