The other night when I was reading Nicholas bedtime stories, we came to a picture which resembled that above. Mind you, he is not a botanical savant like he is a zoological savant, but I asked him what flower it was. He gave me a puzzled look, even though he has seen sunflowers before. I gave him a hint- "It is something that is up in the sky." He quickly responded, "A cloud... a cloud flower." I said no and reminded him that there is a big yellow object in the sky by another name for at least half of our year here in the Northwest. With that, he nailed it- a sunflower.
I think we will be going to California for vacation this winter... southern California.
Merry Christmas!
