CED: Spring Wonderful Wildflower - Philadelphia Fleabane

It's Spring time and today I found this wonderful wildflower growing between the 6th and 8th grade wings of the school where I work. I couldn't help myself from picking them. I didn't have a vase so I put them in an extra coffee cup. They are so pretty, I love the way the flower petals look fuzzy. I didn't know how long they would last, so I brought them home to put on the kitchen table to enjoy.

Once I was a gardener. I would spend time playing in the dirt, trying to make my space beautiful. Then after my last child started preschool I went to work part-time. No more gardening while the kids are gone to school. My beautiful garden became a jungle. Here are a few pictures of what it use to be. I miss gardening. The backyard of our new home needs more color.
