So lately I have been longing for a little friend,
something to call MY own.
I was at Target with my mom looking for a curtain rod,
when I stumbled across this little creation.
Actually she stumbled across it, but it was the best thing that
could have ever happened to me at this time.
I call her,
Ms. Marigold.
all the while so much better.
You see, I began to water her, made sure she had
sunlight, gave her a little ribbon,
and I even keep her on the window sill next to my bed.
A few days went by, and I realized she was lonely,
and even she needed a friend.
So.....
came in. Now they all sit and bask in the sunlight together,
while I enjoy my little plants, which are my substitute fish.
(If I bought a fish, I would probably kill it.)
Then, today as I was watering and admiring my plants,
waiting for the flowers to grow,
Erik came in to the bedroom and stubbed his toe on our
really cool new bed frame we got.
This is what his pinky toe is supposed to look like...
