Since it is almost officially Spring, my mind has been on tulips, my favorite flower. And since I am a pink girl, most of these mishmash photos are of pink tulips! A couple of these images are of tulip bouquets I have enjoyed in my own home. I hope you enjoy these as much as I do!

About Anna Popescu
I live in northern Arizona with my husband, Rick. I am blessed to say that Rick and I are at the bottom corners of a triangle where Jesus sits at the top corner. My children, Kathy & Alan, live in the Phoenix area and make this mom's heart thankful they have grown to be such wonderful and caring adults. Alan married in 2010, so I am also blessed with Denise as a special daughter-in-love.
The Lord took my Mom home in 2007, and I miss her. My Dad and two sisters live in Florida while my two other sisters live in the Northeast. God has also blessed me and Rick with a local family of very close-knit friends.
I love to write when I am able, but on the days when I am struggling with health issues and can't manage much of anything, I can at least crochet. These days I mainly crochet lapghans of various colors and sizes for area rehab centers and nursing homes.
We don’t grow tulips here in the tropics but I remember them fondly from my years in England – along with the daffodils, crocuses and all the bulbs, bluebells, buttercups and daisies – and the lovely snowdrops. I actually complained when my brother mowed the grass and cut down all the lovely daisies when I was staying with him.
I love flowers but have a “black thumb” so I buy a bouquet every so often to cheer myself up. I have lots of lovely silk bouquets around my home but there is something about the look of fresh flowers in a vase that somehow soothes me, Cloudwatcher. Maybe it’s in the knowing that these gorgeous flowers are part of God’s creation…
