You know how cute that is when on Mothers day your kids come home with a cute homemade gift? I LOVE that. Well this year Cort come home with a cute little flower for me to grow and he was so proud of it and I was so excited for it too! My fear is...I SUCK at keeping them alive and I'm terrified I'll hurt his feelers if it dies so I've been super careful with it and its turning into a fun little hobby of mine. Well Tatumn got me a gift too but she wouldn't let me see what was in the white bag till Mothers day that Sunday. So we put it up on the shelf and when I opened it when we got home from Nana's house (where we spent the weekend) I saw that she had a plant too! lol well I figured there was no hope for the poor thing at this point but that we would try anyways. It was in the cutest little hand painted pot too. Hers wasn't grown at all though so all I saw in the bag was the pot and a lot of dirt on the bottom of the bag. So we poured it all back in the pot and put some water in it to see if we could bring the poor thing back. And its already growing! Funny how two small plants can make you feel like you have had this huge accomplishment. Tatumn and Cort are both very good about reminding me or checking with me to see if they have been watered. I need some new batteries for my camera but as soon as I get ahold of some double A's I'll post some pictures of our lovley plants.

I still have the painted mini flower pot Liam made me last year in preschool. Luckily it was minus any flora that I felt like I had to try not to kill. I have the disability commonly referred to as "brown thumb". Plants cry when they see me coming...
