Flower Friday: Hollyhock

When I was a little girl, my mom showed me how to refashion the beautiful flowers into dolls who sashayed in the garden. They wore their bright colored blooms as skirts.

Hollyhocks can grow as tall as ten feet high.

With their pops of color, they're a lovely addition to any flower garden.

Does anyone else remember playing dolls with hollyhock blossoms? My Aunt Rosetta grew them in her yard. When I saw all the hollyhocks blooming in Marblehead last week, sweet memories drifted through my mind. Hollyhocks equal a happy heart.

Just like all sisters, they are different in many ways. ... But... They are learning their differences are what make them special, and they are each growing up to be who they are meant to be. God values every person. He created each child with reverence and respect and fashioned them as a unique work of art. Help them embrace the gifts God endowed them with and encourage them to discover who God made them to become. Betsy and Bailey will help a child see that God created them to be themselves.
