Zinnia–#AtoZChallenge

zinnia

It is with mixed feelings of relief and regret that I post the zinnia, the last flower of the month and of the A to Z Challenge.  Zinnias are part of the daisy/aster family and are very easy to grow and the flowers last a long time.  In flower language, they mean endurance or also thoughts or remembrance of friends.

Today is a cool, rainy day in Chicago.  And I’m worn out.  I had a ton of things I wanted to get done, but I’ve only managed to get a few finished.  I’ll get a couple more things done for school, too, before I call it a day.  I could use some zinnia energy today!

Anyhow, I’ll do a review post of A to Z, but I’ve really enjoyed it.  I’ve met new blogging friends and learned some things about flowers and learned a lot about using photoshop.

I love to create all sorts of things--art, stories, blogs, handwork, food. Also, I like to teach and coach- to inspire people to trust their own inner knowing and creativity. I try to bring wonder and whimsy wherever I go. In over 20 years as a Waldorf teacher, I had the honor to work with my wee and wondrous children. They remind me every day of what's important

  1. Very pretty flower. 🙂

    I’m always both relieved and saddened by the end of April A-Z. You spend months preparing, struggle to stay caught up, and before you know it, it’s over! In fact, I’m still getting caught up from falling behind in April.

    With Love,
    Mandy

    • Thanks! I’m still getting caught up too. Between A to Z and the end of the school year quickly approaching (and my daughter graduating from college) I won’t be caught up for a while.
