    Last night, my father and I took a walk around our neighborhood. About halfway around the block, I saw a clump of yellow wildflowers that were very pretty. I picked one and carried it the rest of the way home to identify it. It was an evening primrose.

    This morning, my father wakes me up and asks me why I left all those flowers on our doorstep.

    "What are you talking about? I put my flower in a glass in the kitchen," I tell him.

    "Come and see for yourself," he says.

    I go downstairs and open the front door. There on the step are six evening primroses.


    I have no idea who left them there. I have been smiling all day.
