My six-year old niece and I went on a heart hunt last week. She was so excited to point out this one. "For Auntie Honey," she exclaimed, dancing in her pink sparkly shoes. This is what we call a tulip tree. It is really a magnolia--but I like tulip tree better. There's something fanciful about that name.
This is a May flower. We found them down by the creek where the Johnny Jump Ups grow. As you can see, in the folded budding of the flower--there's a heart.
Here you see the best find of all. She was SO happy over this heart on a shell. Our little niece was excited she'd found so many hearts for her dear Auntie Honey.
Happy heart hunting!
