Strange day....

Hope that Spring is finally here, for good this time!

And a candle for the family and friends
that will need our support and strength for quite a while.

What is that sweet, little flower?

These are both lovely, the pictures and the expression of hope and support. It's hard to find words sometimes, much less the right words.

I am not sure the name of it, but it grows all over my yard. I really like the purple haze it gives my grass.

I have violets in my yard, and the flowers look similar, but the leaves are different.

I love the color. Maybe I'll go on a search to see what they are :).

I think I found it: Henbit.

I think you are right! I just went and pulled a piece from the yard to compare it to their picture and it is dead on. I do have a lot of bees too, which I always thought was a good thing for the flowers. It is interesting that they are edible, but I don't think I will be trying them. Odd to how they are mostly associated with Africa.
