Pssst, did you know that Firefly season is just around the corner?:) What’s more fun than catching and examining the cool bugs that light up the night?  Check out our Cute & Rugged Nature House.  Don’t forget to let your captors free before you the night ends.

Forget not that the earth delights to feel your bare feet and the winds long to play with your hair. -Kahlil Gibran

Two years ago I traveled to North Carolina to sell our lovely wooden toys.  I knew Mike and my boys were up to something that weekend; usually I get a few calls a day while in transit but this time it was radio silence.  When I finally got a call to check in, I heard a lot of “Shhhh, giggle, giggle, don’t tell her”.   I had tears in my eyes when I pulled into the driveway and saw my lovely garden.  What a special Mother’s Day gift!  The boys used their garden tools to help put in trees and flowers.  They learned about trees, flowers and about taking care of the beautiful nature around us.  Plus, the boys were so proud of their hard work.  Each year the garden blooms, each year the Weeping Cherry Tree gets a little but taller.  Each year on Mother’s Day the boys add a few new flowers just to make mom smile.   My garden truly is the gift that keeps on giving.

Hope your Mother’s Day is filled with love and happiness!  Tania
