Why God Made Dandelions...Through the Eyes of a Child

In all of my years of having the privilege of being around children, both as a teacher and a mother, one common theme I have noticed is that children do not think of dandelions as weeds. To me, this is a poignant illustration of their innocent perspective of the world around them.

So...why are dandelions NOT weeds???

Glad you asked...

- They are bright and yellow. Why would God make weeds bright and yellow??

- They are abundant and everywhere - ready to be picked and given to a very, very lucky adult as a bouquet.

- You can blow the seeds and they go EVERYWHERE!!! How could a weed be so much fun??

My Muddy Buddy

I sure had fun in the mud today!

Had to share this absolutely adorable pic of Aedan!
After several days of rain which left our backyard "puddly" and muddy, this two-year-old played hard in it! I had to try for this photo a few times, as our little Aedan is quite camera-shy...unlike his older brother, Elijah.

Oh, the joys of childhood...playing the mud without a care in the world!
