Our neighbor has been asking me for almost two years to plant flowers in a pot outside our house. She even offered to get them at the store for us, which meant i didn’t need to go and took out the guess work of what to get, so I finally relented. (Plus, Natalie has been learning about gardening at school).

thanks for the gardening lesson, Susan! Can you help make sure we keep them alive? I will ask my Nana to help too!
As we prepared to water them, we had this exchange:
Mama: Natalie, lets to upstairs to get your watering can and wash our hands.
Natalie: No I don’t need to. I wiped them on your pants.
Indeed she had. Since she was late for school , I just let hand sanitize. The dirt on my pants (black yoga pants – one of the few pants that fit!) matched the spit up on my shoulder that I discovered at a doc appt. I am 100% mom. And I love it!
