project 365 - 6/22

6/22, originally uploaded by suzbucket.

Do you believe in signs? These flowers only bloom for a 24 hour period.

When my grandmother passed away (September 2006) this cactus plant bloomed the prettiest flower I had ever seen.

When my grandfather passed away (November 2006) the plant bloomed again. But not only did the plant bloom, so did all of magnolia trees on our property. It was the prettiest thing I had ever seen.

Normally this plant only blooms 1 - 2 flowers at once, but this time it had 5 beautiful flowers.

Its it sign that they are all together? I don't know but I'd like to believe they are.
