"Want to help me in the yard?" Mrs. Kuwabara asked.

"Sure," Kuwabara said, happy to do anything his mother wanted. He followed her into the front yard to the small patch of flowers planted along the house. They didn't have room for much in their yard, but Mrs. Kuwabara tended to it diligently.

As he pulled weeds, Mrs. Kuwabara said, "Did you know that flowers can talk?"

Kuwabara looked at her in awe. "They can?"

She smiled and nodded. "That's right, they can." She gently touched a bright yellow flower. "Daffodils stand for chivalry."

"What's chivalry?" Kuwabara asked.

"Chivalry means you follow the code of the knights," she told him.

"So daffodils are a knight's flower," Kuwabara concluded.

His mother laughed and stuck a daffodil behind Kuwabara's ear. "Indeed they are."
