Josiah and Aliza have been amazed by the apparent fields of purple flowers. They exclaim over their beauty and collect handfuls of flowers for me. Josiah took it to a whole new level on our walk today!
He wanted to pick a flower for Grandma and what he ended up with was a clump of "weeds", dirt and roots that he proudly presented to his Grandma and told her that she could "plant it in her yard". How could she resist such thoughtfulness?
Josiah also presented me with flowers to plant in our yard. Notice--he is holding them very carefully underneath so that "the flowers won't be hurt." He admonished me while I held them so that he could get his shovel.
We picked a spot and Josiah dug the hole.
Placed the flowers in the hole and carefully filled in around them with dirt.
Finally, he got his watering can and watered the flowers.
I'm sure he would be very proud if those flowers spread and our yard becomes a field of purple flowers!
