Why I'm Morning Glory


When I was a little girl, my mom would wake me up and say, "Mornin' Glory!"
Later, when I first started teaching, the teacher across the hall said, "Morning Glory!" each day when I walked in. Then years later, I joined an online lupus support group and we all had nicknames. One of the other members gave me the name, "Morning Glory" because I loved gardening and am very optimistic.

None of the three people knew of the others using the name until I told them! Of all of the types of flowers in the world, it is amazing they all choose the same one.  This definitely makes it an appropriate, and special, nickname for me.  My favorite is the dark blue one, called "Heavenly Blue," which is why I use that picture. That ties in with my writing as well, as it is usually Christian in nature, and almost always positive.
