A field of sunshine

My mother said that sunflowers are the only flowers with ‘flower’ on it’s name. (Correct me if she’s wrong.) She was so fascinated with its large yellow blooms when she was pregnant with me that she almost named me after it. (That would have been hilarious.) Although admittedly, my mood would always seem to perk up whenever I see sunflowers smiling back at me. Or was it just my imagination? Anyway, do you know that sunflowers follow the sun’s movement across the sky from east to west? They track the sun in a process called heliotropism and I choose not to bore you with the science of it all. Instead, why don’t you look at the photo above and try to find me? :)
