Instructions:
Pick one
Sing Happy Birthday to You ( to whichever child is holding the stem)
They make a wish
and
Blow the seeds into the wind.
Found on the walk home last Friday night, Columbus Ohio. iPhone capture. We just looked. They were in a neighbor’s yard.
(AKA dandelions gone to seed)
Great shot
Children always love the magic of blowing these flowers.
Who said seeds are worthless. I’ve made plenty of wishes on those flowers. Don’t know how many came true.
Very pretty shot (and thought)…key words at the end of the post…”neighbor’s yard”…LOL!
Good noticing!
Brings back nice childhood memories.
What fun, I remember it well
And a million more to come!
You are exactly right Gilly!
We used to love to make wishes on dandelion puffers. Looking back, I’m sure the neighbors cringed when we sent all those seeds flying onto their lawns!
We never sang, “Happy Birthday”. The ‘rule’ we followed was that whatever wish we made would only come true if we were able to dislodge all of the seeds with a single breath. That’s a difficult task to achieve!
I will try it.
And – today happens to be my son’s birthday too – He’s 18!
Where has the time gone?
Happy birthday to your son! Thanks RoSy
Thanks dear Ruth!
And – you’re welcome.
