Hand Made Flower Wreaths and Growing Birthday Girls...... My little girl is growing up so fast I just cannot believe it!!  She turned 7 this year.  WOW, where did the time go???  We had 5 boys before having our first girl.  We thought we would never have a girl.  Now we have 4.  Someone later told me, be careful what you ask God for, you just might get it LOL.  We did and we got more than we ever imagined we would.  So for a special crown this year I went outside and cut some of our wildflowers and some of our japanese honeysuckle flowers and made her this wreath out of them.  She loved it.  Of course it didn't last more than a day.  But the pictures will keep the memory!  This wreath was so easy to make.  I just took some long vines of the japanese honeysuckles and twisted the ends around each other and then I tied it together.  Then we went out and picked a few different purple wildflowers and stuck those in between where the vines were twisted together. Wahlah, that was it.  There are more pictures below, including a close up picture of the japanese honeysuckle flowers I mostly used in the making of this wreath.  Happy Birthday my sweet precious girl!!!! Dearest Lord, Thank you for my precious little girl and for all of my children!  I am blessed beyond measure!  In Jesus name I pray!  Amen~
