Thank you so very much Cliff! #4544379Carol Teal July 23, 2007
Peaches, such a bittersweet ending! Bravo for sharing Mr. Sunflower as he developed from a bud to a beautiful sunflower! We used to have large sunflowers when I was a child in TN; in fact, I was in the newspaper with my sunflower when I was about 5 or 6. So they bring back nice memories! #4544430Nancy (Peaches) Harker July 23, 2007
