Semi-Wordless Wednesday

I love this plant. I love the blue and how tiny the blossoms are.
I love that it just IS --
and how it waits quietly for someone to stop and admire it's beauty.
Or not.

And that it doesn't have a teenage smart mouth.

Lovely. I stopped to admire its delicate beauty.

This is off topic, but I love your background. I think it would look awesome as wallpaper in my powder room. Hmmm...wonder if I can hang wallpaper?

Grace said...

I had weeds with flowers like that, only in yellow. At least I think they were weeds, they just grew all over the place - I think think they're pretty.

VanillaSeven said...

I will surely stopped and look if they have a smart mouth :P

Rebecca said...

HAHA! And it's called Forget-Me-Not! lol

Teenage smart mouth? Too funny.

Buggys said...

I think the vital part of this is the lack of smart mouth teenagers. Oh, and the flowers are lovely too.

Pricilla said...

Heh...

Looks good enough to munch!

lifeshighway said...

funny... although my house plants get a little lippy.

Ann said...

That is a pretty little flower and how lucky it is that any of it's offspring will be mute. Love the way you ended you post, cracked me up.

Lovely picture.

That's one of the many reasons I love nature. I (usually) doesn't talk back!

Hee hee! I was enjoying your philosophy for the day and that last line snuck up on me! I should of seen it coming though!

Lin said...

Helene--Yeah, 'cuz you know what I'm talking about, right. ;)

Violet--A simple joy. :)

Catherine--LOL! Yep, pets fall into that category nicely too.

Natalee--This is one of those plants that I actually smile when I see it. I love those.

Chuck--Oh, good. Isn't it sweet? And the color is so vibrant!

Vange--Or maybe you could just paint some dots (large and small) in that same color palette to get the same effect! I did that in my daughter's room and it looks great. Let me know if you do it.

Grace--Well, there you go! You DID have some green around there! :) I hope you didn't pull them.

Vanilla7--If they had a smart mouth, I would squish it. :)

Rebecca--This is a faux forget-me-not--it is Brunnera and it grows great in the shade. LOVE this plant! I have two now.

Diana--You laugh because you know, right?? ;)

Harriet--Do you have that going on too?? It is one of the symptoms of Senioritis.

Buggys--It was wearing me down when I was posting last night. Although I didn't let them know it. :)

Pricilla--The stems are sort of fuzzy, like a weed. I wonder if it would hurt to eat it??

Highway--Hahahaha! So, they have POTty mouth??

Ann--I'm losing the battle with Senioritis around here. I keep telling myself to maintain a sense of humor.

Jen--I like how some plants are just so easy. This is Brunnera and it grows well in the shade. And it just keeps bringing me the loveliest tiny flowers. :) Sometimes that may just be the only good part of the day, but I'll take it.

Beaded Tail--I'm losing the battle with Senioritis, pally! I keep telling myself to laugh, but it is getting hard.

Grace said...

Oh no, no, no - not here - back in Virginia...

The Crazy Suburban Mom said...

First, I love blue flowers.. they are my favorite ones. But really anything without a smart teenage mouth pretty much works for me.

Or anything thats not my van...

Your so funny!

Casey said...

Hahahahhaha. Tell us how you really feel. I have a two year old with a smart mouth too, wanna trade?
