The "significant' Tulip has bloomed. [View all]

My sister was an avid gardener. She also had breast cancer. She wore a lot of pink. It became her signature color. And she LOVED dragonflies.

Chris died in January of 2015. That Spring I notice a Tulip blooming where there had previously been all Daffodils. And, it is Pink. So every time this blooms, and every time I see a dragonfly, I wonder if that's a sign she's still stopping by to keep an eye on things.
