The references to "angel" and "halo" - delusion? Child died and this is a spirit? Parent died and this is an after life? Spirit child approves which gives parent much joy?

This was good, it's going to stick with me due to the mystery and the number of possibilities of reason.

I read it as the flower picking thing being the cause of the joy, not the fact that she has the ability but she uses it to cause the joy. Maybe how she interacts with the flowers can manipulate the owner?
