I love Queen Anne’s Lace. This time of year as I drive along seeing patches upon patches of this amazing “weed”, I force my eyes back on the road and resist the urge to pull over and drag my kids or someone else’s kids out of the car to photograph them right in the middle of it! This is called obsessed photographer mom… and I try really hard not to be that very often. Believe it or not, this abundant weed was at one time used to cultivate the common day carrot. Amazing fact, huh? So right across the street from my house, I spied a wonderful patch of Queen Anne’s Lace and convinced Hannah to brave the bugs and sit long enough for me to take a few pictures! When she saw the results, she told me, “Wow Mom, that doesn’t even look like me!” Of course it does– my beautiful flower amongst the weeds!
