may flowers

I love May Day. The whole point is to give some flowers to those you care about--anonymously. Personally, I love love love being on the receiving end of a bouquet. I cry every time. Every. Time.

Ironically enough, I never participate in the holiday. Not because I don't want to. I always make a list in my mind of who I would deliver them to, what kind of flowers I would use, the tags...but I can only conclude that my procrastination coupled with my irrational anxiety about door-to-door delivering (I know, don't ask) out weighs my good intentions.

I did, however, grow up in a neighborhood with a sweet lady who never failed to deliver her bouquets to a few special people on May Day. Kristi was thoughtful and put forth so much effort into the little things that count in life. I want to be just like her when I grow up. Her simple works have left an impression.

So, here is a virtual bouquet. It's the best I could do (until I get that ridiculous anxiety in check). Pretend you found it hanging on your doorknob today.


Happy May Day!
