My Sunflower!

Here is Mena's sunflower now that she grew from seed.   The bee's just love it!  I can't get over how much water this thing needs.  Mena loves to climb on the rocking chair inside just to look at it and say, "Oh!  My sunflower is so big!"  How wonderful to be able to teach her about God's beauty and power in a way that she can understand!   

Wordless Wednesday!

I went out to water Mena's plant and look who I found...

Mena thought he was so cool. She knows it's a Grasshopper but she insisted on calling it a "Momma bug" Anything medium size is a Momma, big is a Daddy, and little is a baby. There is no way around this. At least not yet. Mena has a wild imagination!

My How You've Grown!

This is Mena's sunflower that she grew from seed! It is so big now. I wonder if I should leave it in the pot or plant it in the backyard? I so don't have a green thumb! She loves to water it every day and my oh my does it need a ton of water! There are always dead leaves at the bottom that need to be "taken care of"!
