My Happy.

We all have things that make us happy.

And I have more than a few.

But this time of the year, my happy is----lilacs.

Their smell.

Their look.

Their imperfections.

When the flowers are closed.

When their flowers are open.

I love them.

Many times I have dreamt of having a wedding surrounded by lilacs.

I remember cutting them and bringing them to school for my grade school teachers.

They make me happy.

Therefore,

They are my happy.
Do you have a happy?

Kristin@ A Vintage Fairy said...: I think its all spring flowers in general. They all make me happy. Tulips and toad lilies are my fav, but all the lilacs, forsythia, crocus, daffodils make me smile. We paid lots for out of stock tulips to be in my wedding bouquet. It was a non negotiable budget doesn't matter item :) Thanks for the beautiful pics to brighten my morning!; April 10, 2012 at 3:42 AM
