Truths
1. I will never get sick of my kids handing me wildflower after wildflower. They do it every time we're outside. "Mama, you love flowers! Here you go. I picked you one." Dandelions, buttercups, violets. I love them all.
2. Grandparents (and great grandparents) are the sweetest people to exist. When we visited my Pop Pop this week, he says: "Hey, you better not lose much more weight there, you'll blow away!" Haha. Thanks, Pop Pop. I assured him I hadn't lost any more weight since last year at this time. It made me smile because Steve's Gramp Pease was telling me the same thing a year ago. You gotta love a grandparent's concern!
3. Hummingbird feeders, and bird feeders in general are the cheapest entertainment available. We love, love, love feeding the birds at this house. When the bears woke up, we put the bird feeder away and put out the hummingbird feeders. Our tiny feathered friends started arriving immediately! We enjoy it so much we have two feeders- one in the front yard, and one we can watch out our back window when we're in the kitchen. It's so much fun to see the hummingbirds dive in for a drink! It's easy to make the hummingbird food with this recipe.
4. Speaking of recipes, this one for kabobs is a winner. Yay for grilling season!
5. It feels good to be rewarded. Pampers, Pampers, Pampers. We've been buying them for almost four year straight (no, I would rather not calculate the cost on that). We've tried almost all the other brands of diapers, but this is the brand that's been most reliable with the fewest leaks. For almost four years, I've been diligently entering in the reward points off every single pack of diapers. Turns out, after this long, we finally had enough points to get the "top prize"- a PlasmaCar. I ordered it and it came in just a few days later! It's as much fun as it looks.
What truth did you discover (or rediscover) this week?
