Wow, into week 5 and Feb already!  This weeks assignment was to look for hearts in everything around us. The first few days I didn't even think about it as I had issues going on in my life, but then on Wednesday I remembered and took my camera with me out side. Below are pictures I took of  "things" that reminded me of hearts. Enjoy!

This is a Luna Moth that we saw this week on a chair in my dads yard. I have never seen one up close before. It was beautiful! I could even see his feathery antennae. I know it isn't a perfect heart, but it made mine pitter patter . I even submitted it to the Butterflys and Moths of North American website.  So cool!

 These two pictures are of a type of succulent called Kalanchoe Mirabella.   I have them all over my yard.  The one below I did some playing with. But it makes the middle look like a heart!

In this picture, the purple plant is called a Purple Heart. It is a type of ivy.  The green one beside it  is another type of ivy. And the leaves did look kinda of like hearts.  The one below was just a leaf I saw that looked like a heart....










The two below are from the trees in the forest that line the street where I walk to my dads.  I am not sure what they are, but they are all over the place. And though they aren't "perfect"....they kinda remind me of "broken" hearts...

 

This one is of a Wisteria plant in my dad's yard...even though it is bare, the way the limbs curve remind me of hearts.

And while they aren't exactly shaped like hearts they are red.






And last of all is the fencing around the "rose" garden. It is sorta shaped like a heart!

  So here are my "hearts" for this week. It is interesting to look for hearts as you go through life, as we all need some "love" every day.
