Nature love

"Come here sweetie" I said to Lorelei as we walked through the field. "Come see this plant."




She bent down and looked at it, "What is it mommy?"
"It's a mullein plant" I tell her, "touch it, it's soft. Some people call it Lamb's Ears"
She reached out and touches a leaf-- "It's fabric! Mommy, it's fabric. It's not a leaf, it's fabric!"




I got a spider bite walking through that field. It swelled up the size of a tennis ball. That moment was worth it.
