Fun Fact


If you have the delightful chance 
to pick some fruit from a citrus tree
 and you're not sure what it is...
...A lime tree is bushy, 
a lemon is tall and tree like. 
 The leaves on a lime tree
 smell like a lime when you crush them. 
 Lemon tree leaves have no smell.  
I so wish we would have
bought a couple of fruit
trees when we first moved here
over 20 years ago.
They would be fully mature now....
and fruity.

Well, who knew that lemon tree leaves have no smell?!?

(This post reminds me that I bought a whole bag of lemons for something that I never used them for. Wonder if they're still any good???)

Don't you just love hind-sight? :)
I wish you had planted citrus trees, too! But you DO have an avocado tree! That's fun...

Kim: Yes, yes. I do have the avocado tree. With no fruit.

Rebecca: I think citrus can keep for quite a while in the fridge!

My Favorite Child

I wish I had all the pictures I wanted, to go with this blog post........because I know a *picture paints a thousand words*, but for a large part of our family's life, old fashion cameras and old fashion pictures were being used.  So, many of the pictures that would help paint this post are somewhere in boxes and books.  It would take a month of Sundays to find them all so  I will just have to count on your imagination and my memory! FAVORITE: most liked, preferred above all others Sara, you were my favorite.  You were our first baby and we were so excited for you.  Your hair was perfect for me to learn how to braid and you always were very still for me.  You were the first little girl I got to dress up and put lacy socks on.  You were such a fun little girl to read to.  You memorized the books we had and it was a big part of our day to read with each other.  *where is the bear when the wind blows cold?*.    You have always been interested in the *family tree*, dates, p
