I have always wanted my boys to bring me flowers from the yard - it was one of those dreams that just sounds fun. So my heart melted today when Chloe came in and said, "Look Mommy, one for you and one for me!!" Yes, I oohed and aahed over them - as the boys watched on to see what I would do - you see, they were my prized HOSTA flowers!!! Ok, I'll admit, I did take her out and show her which flowers she may and may not pick - but I still had to smile - I can not imagine my life without a daughter!!

10 seconds after a tulip bloomed at our house i would pick it for mom.
I still enjoy bringing her lilacs if my bush has any.
Bless Chloe's heart what a great thought.
Tee hee. It's happened here too. You still gotta love it. Great post!
What a sweet post about your oh, so sweet daughter... enjoy your beautiful flowers... teehee
Yes it is just so sweet to receive flowers from your darling daughter...either they're dandelions or the nice flowers of the neighbours hum!
I can just imagine your boys looking on, thinking you were going to lose it. That sweet little girl is much more precious than any flower. Enjoy those flowers!!
How sweet and yes, a daughter is very, very special :-)
I could hear what you might have said on the inside as she showed them to you! Too sweet......... and how cold you be upset with such an innocent sweet gesture.
Ohhhh...that is so sweet! yes...daughters are special! ;)
I just looked at the picture now too.Who could get upset with that sweet smile.Melted my heart.
HOW CUTE!!!
Girls are special..
Have a Great Week.

How sweet - I love hearing that you enjoy her so much. Thankyou for your encouraging words - it really helps.
So sweet :- )
So sweet! :)
I tagged you--when you get time stop on by!
too cute!! I made a clover tiara for Oakley last week during the 100+ degree soccer game we were suffering through, and she wore it like a princess. I'm loving all things girly, which is a bit of a surprise to me. Truly, I never cared much at all about Disney princess, but by gosh, if Cinderella isn't the most lovely thing:).

Love it! She just wanted to pick you the VERY BEST flower, mom!
Daughters are something special alright!
That is so sweet! Daughters are sooo special!
So sweet. I love having a little girl to. They are the best.
very sweet

Grace loves to bring flowers too. Dan a few times but yes, a girl is special. They just *get it* about Mommies don't they!? Such a sweet picture too!
Have a happy day!
Hugs,

Awww, sweet girl.
Oh how sweet! I usually get weeds from the girls, but that's because I don't have a very green thumb...except when it comes to weeds!
girls are awesome! They just understand mommy! I'm much more into the girlie things now that Abby's around... lip gloss, toe nail polish, jewlrey... the list goes on. I love my little girl!
So cute! I've been trying to train Hannah to only pull off the "not-so-good-looking blooms that need to be cut anyway" flowers! ;) Of course, that will only work for a short time.
Oh how sweet! There is nothing like your daughter picking you flowers. She is sooooooooo cute!!
How can you yell at them when they do that?? It's so sweet. Funny how the boys were watching your reaction. Oh the lessons we teach from being watched.
How precious. Daughters are a blessing! I am excited to come back and read more about homeschooling. We homeschool too, and love it, but I haven't looked into curriculums yet.

That is so sweet. Hannah the other day out of the blue said, "Mommy your pretty". My heart melted.
So sweet! I can't imagine life without my daughter either. :)
Flowers picked by your children are priceless!!! They'll grow back again next year so don't fret about them too much. Your hostas don't deliver them to you with such a sweet smile do they?
Awwww...super sweet! Love those purple flowers.
How sweet.
Good luck with that, I've tried many, many times to tell the boys which to pick/not pick...it doesn't matter, they always pick my roses.
I guess it's just something that's meant to be...and that's ok. :D
