I’m being challenged. You know I’ve mentioned before about how amazed I am that I’ve been able to keep an orchid, a gift from a friend, alive for so long. Well now I have THREE of them! Did word get out or something? Is it now known around town that I can keep an orchid alive? Yikes. Now I’m being tested – ha!
My mom brought me this one while I was in the hospital, the day after I gave birth to Sarah. I’d never seen one like this before. It’s more like a full plant with A LOT of flowers about ready to bloom rather than just one long stem with a few flowers.
And then when I got home, my neighbor brought this one over for me. It’s TALL. Almost three feet tall with 8 LARGE flowers.
Well, I’m up for the challenge. I think I need to round up some more little fairies to help.
Didn’t we just do this last year? Yes, yes we did. Only this time it’s a girl. 10 fingers, 10 toes. Sugar and spice and all things nice. Here she is – only a few hours old.
My little love bug makes me a proud mama. Happy Mother’s Day weekend to all the mama’s out there!
Oh Pixie and Stella. They’ve made it through the first year of Max. With all the changes and those sleepless nights in the beginning. I wonder how much they understand that there is about to be a Round 2.
