for Mom...from Olivia.

Olivia just walked up to me as I was making dinner and handed me a flower she had made out of some straws and connectors that the boys have been playing with lately.  It was completely her own design...which was cute because it actually looked like a flower!  Proof that she is truly out of the same DNA that my creating/lego-loving boys are!

She handed it to me, mid stride...on her way to see what the boys were up to next.  Over her shoulder she offered the following advice:

O - "It's a fwower, for you mom."  (slight pause).  "Uh, don't eat it."
Me - "Huh?  Don't eat it?"  (another slight pause of my own)  "Wait.  Did you try to eat it?"
O - "Yeah.  I wicked it (licked it).  It's yucky!"

Well there you have it.  Don't eat plastic flowers.  They're yucky.
