Hi, Mary, you didn't embed your video properly, as it was only showing a link to your channel. In order to embed it, you need to select the embed code from YouTube and enter it on the site when prompted for it; do not paste the video URL there, as you did, as then just a link shows on this site. The embed code for this video can be found by going to the video player on YouTube, clicking on "Share" underneath it, and then selecting the embed option (not the Share URL, which pops up first). The embed code for this video looks like this:

Mary, I went ahead and edited this clip to include the embed code, and now the video player on YouTube is showing above. If you want to see what I did, just click on "Manage Clip" and then "Edit Clip" and look under the embed code field. You'll see that I replaced the video URL with the embed code in my other comment. This way, people on the site can see the video, and you still get credit for YouTube views - win-win for everyone! 

Cute video, BTW!

Looks like you got it all figured out based on your daffodil post; that video is showing up nicely!
