Flowers

Every time my son goes out to mow the lawn with his father, he takes a short break to bring me something. He usually waits at the bottom of the stairs and says, “Mommy! I have a surprise for you.” It might be a pretty rock he found. More than likely, it’s a flower from our garden.

Today, he brought me a dandelion.

“I know it’s a weed, but I thought it was pretty,” he said. “So I picked it for you.”

As for the pig? It’s just my piggy bank. But you probably already guessed that.
