A thorn in their side

I’ve probably mentioned this before, but I really love flowers. I know that’s not a very manly thing to admit, but I’m secure enough to just put it out there. My mamas like flowers, too, but not in the same way I do. I don’t really understand why they only want to look at them and smell them, but not eat them. Oh well, to each his or her own.

Anyway, last week Mama C received flowers from a friend as a belated birthday present. The arrangement included roses, my favorite! You can probably guess what happened next.

Can you spot the invasive species in this photo?

Pretty soon Those Two got tired of yelling at me to get down, and moved the vase from the kitchen island to a bathroom. They tried to keep the door shut so that I didn’t get in there, but fortunately for me they are often forgetful.

A rose is a rose is a rose

Finally, they put the vase on top of a high cabinet, where now none of us can truly enjoy the flowers. As they like to say, it’s a good thing I’m cute!

OK, so it’s not my most flattering angle.
