MJ,
This is a cute little story, but what is a dandelion clock? Other than that, I thought this was adorable!
You asked about my adding this to the book - I only did that for those folks who didn't know there WAS a book. *smile* If we have any others pop up, I'll add them all together.
Thank you!

This is a dandelion clock:https://www.google.com/search?q=dandelion+clock&client=safari&rls=en&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjy2vvR0dLhAhWyxoUKHZMiBeYQ_AUIDigB&biw=1440&bih=768. What do you call it?

hahaha! It's just a dandelion. But I saw that the clock thing is British. And stems from 'A children's amusement in which the number of puffs needed to blow the filamentous achenes from a dandelion is supposed to tell the time.' Very cool. Never heard of that before. Thanks!

I've just seen it can also be called a blowball. For me a dandelion is the yellow flower.

A great story Maria, I really enjoyed reading this, it was great, it was fantastic. I liked the magik in her grandma's hair. And the story behind it was fun to read. You did very well with this.

This is a very charming story, Maria... You do come up with some fantastic tales with adorable characters. I enjoyed this 'puffy' little snippet of a story.

AAAWWW what a perfectly delightful writing for children and I too can imagine the little puffballs floating in the air as I am still a fan of the aged dandeliions and their parachute seeds.

Oh, Maria!
What a perfectly delicious story! I can just see the wonder and doubt of the little girl. And when the little girl blows on the grandmother's hair = magical. Smiles all around! Lovely story!

What a very cutesy story Maria. I was wondering if how many of our flowers become little girls, if so who adopted them, heh heh. Another wonderful short form story, well done, dear friend, blessings, Roy

Hi Maria,
Ha ha ha! This is such an endearing story. I love the ending. (Good grief, grandma was shedding! LOL) As always, your story is impeccably well written, with nothing I could possibly suggest you consider improving upon. Thank you so much for sharing yet another incredibly imaginative and delightful read. Jan :-)
