Walking home from the bus stop this afternoon Saedi told me that Gavin calls the white dandelions…..
Wish Flowers.
I have to say I like that name much better.

I found a gigantic tub of animal crackers at Costco and bought them on a whim, because I thought they were cute and the kids would like them. They are Winnie-the-Pooh shaped.
In case you are not as intimately familiar as we are with Winnie-the-Pooh (having seen many movies/cartoons HUNDREDS of times) they are Tigger, Pooh, Piglet, Roo, Eeyore and Lumpy. Solvei and Nels LOVE them. They are quite tasty, but the reason I mention this is actually because of Gavin. He has a peculiar way of eating them.
With every cracker he eats everything but the noses and saves them for last.

Saving the noses for last cracks me up!! My girls call them “wish flowers” too. I just wish they would stop wishing with them in our yard!
