This is the newest grand-niece, Nell, pictured with the new grand-parents Ted and Mary.

As I welcomed her a few days ago I promised to send her some Mimosa as birth flower and since then have been wondering whose garden I could sneak into to break off some blossom.

Fortunately it was for sale in the florists in the Super U last night so I was able to buy a bunch.

A spray of which I am drying for Nell.

Mimosa, incidentially is the symbol of love and protection and is also the flower carried by women on International Womans Day, celebrated on March 8th- tomorrow.
A nice combination of symbols for Little Nell.
