Thank you, Daisy Girl Scout Troop #2162, for your heartwarming gesture that brought a ray of sunshine to the residents of Grand Victorian of Sycamore on a cloudy day. Your thoughtfulness and kindness were truly felt and appreciated. 

On the drizzly afternoon of Tuesday, September 24th, these thoughtful, kind, generous girls met with Sweet Life volunteer Ms. Lynette to create sunny FLOWER POWER bouquets at our Meals On Wheels Flower Garden. 

Once their cheerful zinnias were ready to go, they boarded a TransVAC Bus, and our driver, Mr. Terry, made the Wheels On The Bus Go Round and Round.  He drove us safely through the town so we could personally deliver flowers to the good people enjoying their dinner in the Grand Victorian dining hall. 

Everyone shared smiles and cheerful greetings, and more songs were sung before Mr. Terry returned us to the garden. 

Thank you, Ms. Lynette for teaching us how to make beautiful bouquets,  @sweetlifegardengroup for coordinating efforts, VAC staff for taking us all the way, and to the staff of Grand Victorian of Sycamore for welcoming us.
