Abbie

Today my little sister Abbie came inside, brokenhearted, to give my mom the last zinnias of the year. :( She's so little that she doesn't understand that they'll come back in the spring, and she cried for at least thirty minutes about it. Here's 
a pic that my mom took of herself holding them. (Note Levi in the baby carrier!) We pressed one of them in a dictionary, and put the rest into a cup of water. My mom was telling me that she remembers doing the exact same thing about some pussywillow, when she was little. Little kids are so sweet.
