On the way home from church this morning, we couldn't resist the field of "flowers." So we stopped and picked as many as their hands could hold. We had two very happy girls and 4 beautiful vases of flowers on my table. I love dandilion bouquets! More than that, I love to make memories with our children. It is moments like these that I want to remember, not the times that I tell them to hurry so we can get somewhere 3 minutes faster. I have to remind myself daily that picking flowers is way more important that having a clean house. (even when it is on the market)
Lydia spent the next 20 minutes arranging her flowers into a vase. I asked her if she wanted to be a florist and she promptly told me, "No, I am going to be a pharmacist mama with three children, Lucy, Sara and Thomas. No wait the Daddy's name is Thomas." Well, we will see what time brings...I will have good laugh if she ever dates a Thomas.
