The Girl collects things from outside and leaves them around the house in various bowls, cups etc. I noticed as I was faffing about yesterday that the collections have moved from acorns and leaves to brightly colored buds and blossoms. Everything is so green here in the ATX, and although the oak pollen is off the charts, we are enjoying the cool mornings and warm days...and we're trying stave off thoughts of the hot, hot texas summers that will be here before we know it.
