Have you heard about the Daffodil Garden?

It's inspiring!
The Story of the Daffodil Garden as found on Blue Eyes and Biscotti
"The daffodil garden illustrates the God given potential that each one of us holds when we plant seeds one by one. Seeds of discipline, love, joy, peace, patience, goodness, faith, meekness, and self-control—seeds that will blossom in our garden one day, a breath-taking garden that draws others to Christ."

Share Our Garden shares this about The Daffodil Concept.
"The principle her daffodil garden teaches is one of the greatest principles of Life. Learning to let go, let God and how much just 'little you' can accomplish, one step at a time. Learning to love the journey, not the destination. Seeing the sights along the way. We can change our world."
