honey of a thousand flowers

This was mother's day. i made my mother's gift while sitting outside on her lawn, made with leftovers and things I collected on the way there. My nieces and nephews were running in circles around me, the air smelled like barbeque and lilac. I love working outside.

I thought May was crazy busy at the time, but the memories of sitting on the lawn and leisurely arranging are long gone, and the madness of summer weddings ensue...
