Different Day Same Flower

I just realized I used these Hosta flowers on Wednesday.  A little heat and lots of sun and they do look different.  

Yesterday my sister passed away.  She was 10 years older than I and we were estranged.  Today her son (48 years old), who Jon and I were very close to before we had children of our own, got in touch with me for the first time in several years.  Grateful that out of something bad, comes something good.  Long story but she was the reason her son felt he couldn't stay in touch.  Life surely has a lot of twists and turns.  In the words of Jerry Garcia - "What a long strange trip it's been" and it's far from over (or at least we hope so).
