Day 165: I love this picture for many reasons, but I have to notate the story of picking these "flowers." It was a Saturday morning that I was closing...so those mornings we generally lay low. We took a walk and stumbled upon a field of weeds growing. Carly began picking them while I swayed back & forth getting my babe to sleep. She looked up at me and said, "Join me, Mommy, join me!" That alone melted my heart but as soon as I picked my first "flower" she excitedly exclaimed with a smile on her face, "Great job, Mommy!!!" She picked so many flowers that she actually developed a stem burn (is that a thing?) on her right pinky. She was pretty upset this had happened so I carried both her & Luke home while she said over & over, "get home daddy kiss it get band-aid..." So here you can see she is modeling her flowers while holding out her pinky with the band-aid on it. She is the most precious thing on the face of the Earth. ;-) |
