DAFFODIL: Regard, rebirth, new beginnings, unrequited love, you're the only one, chivalry, eternal life.
I've always loved the daffodil. It is the first flower of spring. A sign that the storms are almost over and the sun is just around the bend. A symbol of hope, renewal, and eternal life.
While dating, I mentioned to Oby that I loved daffodils. He has never forgotten that simple statement, and often manages to delight me with daffodils when the occassion presents itself. What a sweetheart! Just the other day, he brought in some hand-picked daffodils. *sigh* I've got a good guy!
A daffodil bouquet was part of my Valentine's Day present last year
These daffodils surrounded us while Oby proposed
He proposed at and we were married in this temple, another symbol of eternity
What is your favorite flower and why?

Oh my gosh! He is so sweet!
I just like any flower that's orange. ;)
My favorite flower is the tulip cause it's simple and yet full of colors and positive energy!
I love tulips! I guess because they're the first flowers of spring and symbolize a new beginning. They come in so many beautiful colors. Some spring I want to go to the tulip festival in Seattle. THere are fields of them blooming!
What a lovely place to be married! How romantic that he remembers that's your favorite flower too...sweeet! Hmmm, I love Daisy's because they can be so bright and springy. Love the birdy layout too!

Daffodils, in my mind, are the first signs of spring. The temple is beautiful. I bet it was a beautiful wedding and a lovely proposal with all those flowers around.
Daffodils are one of my very favorites, too! I have many though, daffodils, dahlias, gerbera daisies, freesia and peonies are my favoriteist favorite ones though.
Beautiful flower & story. I also love them.
My fave has to be the Hibiscus. They're just so colorful and tropical.
I love tulips for the same reason.
I do love daffodils and they're my daughter's favorite. I think my favorite is the lily. :)
I like tulips, and daisies, but I really love any flower. Especially bulbs and perennials that come back every year.
MY favorite color is YELLOW! That's why I love daffodils too. They also represent the fact that winter is nearing to an end. I wanted to tell you again that I am really sad that we didn't get to meet you. (sigh) I really, really wanted to. :(
I love daffodils too! I think they look so beautiful when they bloom and they still can weather the Utah storms and are still standing even with the dustings of snow!! I also love lillies and daisies!
Tara, I have something for you at my place. Come see me!
I love all flowers but ones with a scent are my favorites - jasmine, hibicus, lilies, roses.
What great pictures and yes, you got a good one in Oby and he in you.
That's a great picture of the temple with all the daffodils in front!
I would be hard-pressed to pick a favorite flower! There are so many that are so pretty! In the spring time I like the tulips that grow together in clumps. :)
I love hyacinths and lilacs. My great aunt had trees and bushes with these flowers and I absolutely adored them. I used them for my wedding flowers as well.
It's good to catch up with the goings on of TMI. I always love to visit your blog Tara! I love daffodils too, but my favorite flower is the gerbera daisy. They are just so simple and bright. The way I like life to be.
I love carnations....they last forever and i love that spice smell they have!
You have a present over at my blog. Check in the "Awards" post from yesterday...
That is so sweet...I love how special that flower is for you. I love daffodils and tulips...I think spring flowers are my favorite because they bring much needed color after a loooong winter.
Love daffodils since they are the March flower but my fave, Iris. And of course here at the house we have everythign, daffodils, tulips, etc but no iris!!
guess I don't really have a fav. Whenever I see Daffodils I always think of Alic in Wonderland!
