Hi Neighbor!
We’ve been taking advantage of the longer daylight hours and the (mostly pleasant) summer evenings the past month or two by lingering longer at the pool, or by heading out the door for nice long strolls. The strolls have several highlights according to my three-year old daughter, including bunny counting (SO many this year!), stomping on lantern flies (UGH), catching fireflies and her most favorite of all, picking dandelions.
I have countless photos since she was able to walk, of her smiling away with a yellow stained nose and fistfuls of drooping dandelions. We always bring them home, fill a glass with water and put the bouquet on the kitchen table.
For most of us, dandelions don’t inspire joy. Our lawns are peppered with the pesky weeds, and many hours are spent digging them out to retore the yard to uninterrupted green. It wasn’t until recently that I learned that my daughter’s adoration of the little yellow blooms is well-earned! READ MORE
