Tulips on Mother’s Day
May 10, 2014
What better example could I give you of a Mother’s Love for her children than these images of the Tulip family in our garden ? The wind blowing lightly helped me greatly to create this little allegory. See how Mama tulip shows her affection to her youngest ? Bending gently and probably encouraging her to stand tall and strong in spite of the wind.
Mama is guiding her sweet white tulip towards the right path.
When difficulties arise and doubt makes one’s shoulders more fragile, Mama is still there, moving alongside her young tulip. Notice the support of the other family members, standing strong around them 😉 Even if a bit disheveled…
“Let’s move on, little one, you can make it, I believe in you and love you”, says Mama Tulip.
And when the youngest one is ready and feeling safe to stand up again and grow, Mama leaves her going her way, calm and proud. So is Dad, standing on the left and knowing all will be good. Do not ask me about the different shades in their family, please. Race is not an issue with them. The more colors, the merrier ! This little allegory is to tell you of my love and gratitude for my mother, Cécile, living now in her own garden somewhere. My love for all mothers to thank them for all they do and are to us. Because we always remain the children of our mothers, don’t we ?
HAPPY, HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY ! With Love
