The Story of the Sad Daffodil

Once upon a time, there was a "sad" daffodil.  It was sad because it wanted to be with its family.

So, it bent over and lay down on the step outside the door of three little ladies.

One day, one of the ladies named Emma almost stepped on the daffodil, despite mom's yells of, well, "don't step on the flower."

Emma saw the flower and felt sorry for it.  She sat down on the steps and tried to cheer it up by picking it up and twirling it around.  And around and around.

And then, Emma's sisters, started fighting over who got to take care of the flower.  And they all twisted and twirled it.

It seemed like the flower was finally getting cheered up about it's family being out at the end of the driveway.

Until a few days later mom realized that the sad daffodil had shriveled up, and looked like the top of the stem had been crushed.

All from too much love.
