On this beautiful spring day I thought I'd share some photos of the plants around our house that are finally in bloom. We've got a Canada red cherry tree that was planted the year Lindsey was born, Lindsey knows that it's "her" tree. We've also got a crab apple tree planted for Marissa, which is also known as Marissa's tree. Both are in bloom right now and gorgeous.
One evening this past week I was holding Lindsey up to smell the blossoms (the cherry tree smells unbelievable). When we got to the crab apple tree, she was afraid to put her nose in the blossoms because she thought there were crabs on the tree.I love how literal kids are -- I would've never connected the word "crab apple" with actual crabs with pinchers.
You were the one who didn't want to go down and play pool as a very young girl because you thought the "new to us" pool table was a swimming pool. Wonder where the literal comes from? Don't you love it!
