I want to get those pretty flowers that just sprawl on the ground but are dense in color? I know one of them is Phlox. I'm going to haunt the garden shops until I get what I want. Yesterday I went with the Littlest to a local garden shop and we no sooner walked in to the shop part, not even outside yet in the whole back where all the plants were and he says, "Bye bye, all done" meaning you have about exactly 7 minutes and 32 seconds before my sirens start going off and then I'm REALLY done. Stress the second he says it. He's irritated, he hates hates hates going in stores or shopping or being in his stroller. You know what? That's exactly what it boils down to. Hates being in his stroller. I think he feels cooped up. But I can"t let him walk----he runs and I have to chase him. I see other Mom's with their young kids (like the Littlest) just walking along side them. Nope not mine. How'd I get on this subject when I was talking about flowers?
I'm on a mission. I guess I'll have to plant them too. {sigh} We have no curb appeal. Only green grass. Lots of that. No pretty color, no pretty flowers.
Well, not YET we don't. I'm going to get it done. Check that off my list. Plant new things, watch them grow, new growth, good for the spirit, you know where I'm going with this.....I need this.

You cook, you clean, you go to work, you nourish, you love, you scold, you are professional and yet you hang your hat on every dust particle in your home. You are a woman. Some women are Moms and some are not. You are still a woman. We are all made similarly. We are strong.

Today is Arbor day I think so perfect that you feel that way. Good idea.
Joseph use to run too. I let him walk and tell him "You can walk around by mommy but if you misbehave in the cart you go" and he does much better.
Like you need parenting tips from me. (insert eye roll)
