How wonderful that George is following his passion. My husband and daughter engage in “plant speak.” To be noticed, yes, 🙌🏼 and feel that we belong and our presence matters. Even if our names are too hard to pronounce, our essence remains. Your Thursday posts fill me, Katrina. 🌱🌿💜
“Even if our names are too hard to pronounce, our essence remains.” I love that, Joanie. I had to label my pictures “blue flower,” “red mushroom” because that’s what I’ll remember. But I know exactly what pictures I’m talking about when I see those labels! I’m so happy to hear that you’re enjoying my Thursday posts. That means so much to me. XO
You are making my eyes leak a lot today my friend.
I love everything about this and feel so seen!! 🍄 That little red cap is one of my favorite show offs! They always make me want to shrink myself into a fairy and build a home out of it.
Thank you for sharing this story today! I’m so glad you and your son connect in such a meaningful way ❤️❤️❤️
I love this story and this lesson. Way back when Charlie met George for the first time, as we were walking to our car to go home, he said, "George is a smarty mcsmart smart". He is indeed. Sounds like he's wise, as well. <3
Very cool. From one botany geek to another - way to go George! I never found that species of Carex in my 10 years of botanizing in the arctic, so actually SUPER cool!! BTW, Kat...that little botany ditty does have a second part - it goes like this: "Sedges have edges and Rushes are round." Not as incident inciting like "snitches get stitches," but ... well yeah. That's all I got.

I love this message so much. Thank you!
Also, I snickered at your "snitches get stitches" response. ☺️
I giggled when I wrote it, too. I think I’m hilarious, but my kids definitely do NOT. HA!
What a lovely discovery. Tiny/huge lessons everywhere.
I’m so happy George found it. It was such a big win for him. <3

He’s a good kid, and I learn so much from him. Did you read the history of the red capped mushroom? It’s such a great story. XO
Just went back and read it!! What a fun story!!
I'm just here to say shout out to Henry, what a handsome fellow!
George says he’s as good as he is handsome. I get to meet him (finally!) in October. ☺️

I love this story about our two smart, successful boys. And wasn’t bacon involved? 😂
Maybe! I hope so. Bacon makes everything better! ;)
