All in a Day's Work

One of the things Elias and I do during the day: We work out in the yard. I pull the weeds and trim the bushes. He plants sunflower seeds and waters . . . well, everything! When he gets tired of watering, he catches rolly-pollies, caterpillars, and lady bugs. He likes to feed them leaves. This is one of my favorite things to do as a mom; I love Elias, I love gardening, and I love bugs!

Such enthusiasm for everything he does is one of the things

that makes this kid so endearing!

Would you like a drink mom?!

Well, if mom won't let me give her face a drink, I'll take one for myself!
