  1. Cathy, I did not know that the daffodil was a symbol of new beginnings etc. Only last week I was passing by the park (i work across from Madison Square Park) and I saw the daffodils, then later there was another kind of spring flower. Thanks for sharing.

    P.S. I planted tulips and they are peeking out. I get excited whenever I look for them. Spring indeed the time of new beginnings.

    God Bless

    Hi Akela,

    Aren’t the spring flowers lovely? I learned about the symbolism of daffodils recently. The Lord’s creation is truly beautiful, and a blessing to us all!

    Thanks for stopping by.

    Blessings,
    Cathy
