The Daffodils Have Returned!


I'm so excited to see the daffodils waking up in the beds around the cabin! In about December of 2010, I had given myself the task of manifesting a Daffodil and the game of seeing how long it would take before I "ran into" either a real flower, a photographic impression, or even an artificial daffodil. I simply launched a little "rocket of desire" over hoping to see that cheerful yellow in the grey of winter. Occasionally I would remember and daydream about these, my favorite flowers. It was nearing our third month creek side, when one day, there it was - the first daffodil right next to the front door! But more surprising, I was soon to discover that the gardens here are filled with hundreds of daffodils in a dozen varieties and the home was soon surrounded in a brilliant blaze of yellow! My "rocket of desire" hit a target somewhere!  So, now we've come full circle on a year and the daffodils are back, ready to open any day now! I'm SO excited!
