Friday Fling #128 May 13th 2011<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

It’s the middle of May, so we thought we should do a follow-up to Michelle’s pre CPC-Friendburst blog party challenge about April showers by writing about May flowers. <\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

What do you look forward to and enjoy most about Spring in general and\/or May flowers in particular? How does Spring in full feather make you feel and\/or act? <\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\nand the weather is warmer,
\nflowers reach for the sun.<\/p>\n
