All flowers remind me of ... Zu!

One warm Saturday morning in late May, I took my mother to the airport. I drove home and realized that I was up, the sun was up, and nothing else. So, I was sitting around thinking that I needed to have some flowers out on my balcony. Before I knew it, I was walking around Lowe's picking out said flowers. In no time at all, they were planted and looking lovely.

Zuzu even took to them very quickly. She is usually such a pill about new things! 

The sad part of this springy tale is that all the petals fell off the pink flower, and after a two week vacation to Utah, the pansies all died as well. I am left with a brown, knotted mess in the soil. I'm thinking of leaving it for a while...as a reminder to myself that I need to pay attention to things that need attention.
