Grandma's Flower

I took a picture of this flower that popped up in my Grandma’s driveway right after she passed. The time of picture, Friday 8:21PM on 5/25. She passed at 4:42 PM. The crazy thing is there should not be a flower where this flower is, it was really hot out too without rain, and if you look it is growing out of a crack in the driveway that is right next to a tarp. No way a flower should have looked this fresh, or been able to grow there in the first place. It was not there on Monday before she passed when I went to see Mom who lives with Grandma. When I went back to clean the yard up on Tuesday after she passed, it was gone.  If you look in the center, it looks like cross. Her favorite color was purple.  

When  Piedmeier Florist  made the flower arrangements that Aunt Tina had made, they put birds in them, that are the same colors as her flower. My Grandma loved birds.  

Everyone that I spoke with about the flower, the first thing they seemed to say is it was God’s way of saying she is ok now and at peace.  

If you look the pedals look like hearts, and I found out later it’s called a primrose (first rose) flower and they associate flowers with birth months. This one is Feb which is my Grandma’s b-day month.


I love you Grandma. You are forever in my heart. Until we meet again.
