Welcome to my blog! My name is Esther and I'm so happy you are here. I'm an avid nature photographer and a daydreaming thinker. My posts revolve around photos of nature's beauty, homeschooling adventures with my 2 kids, sporadic reflections on my child's heart condition, Bible reading reflections, gardening feats, and other mish mash things. Hopefully you'll leave encouraged, pensive, or smiling at the simple things of life. Thank you for stopping by and hope you'll find some interesting posts to read!

    1. I think they are Zinnias. I assumed they were Marigolds, but don’t quote me on that. I’m not too good about identifying flowers.
      But these yellow flowers were so fluffy and soft!

      1. They will be pretty to have in your garden. Having butterflies as visitors would be a treat and great photo opp. Kids and I raised caterpillar to butterfly from a company called Insect Lore. It was so much fun and we got to release them by getting them to sit on our fingers, dipped in sugar water. Here is the link to see the pictures of that experience:

      2. Thank you, Esther. When I first taught preschool, we did that. We incubated eggs, made ice cream, raised butterfly, and more.

        I’ll look at your link and see what’s available.

      3. All those projects sound fun and educational! My kids want to incubate eggs but I don’t know what to do with them once they hatch.
        Preschool kids are full of personality, energy, and sweetness. I used to work with preschoolers too in bible study classes. I loved their curiosity and wonder.
        Sure, when you have time, you could check out the link.
