Posts in "Photos"

Missed a couple days of the photo challenge. But back for today, February 8th: This would’ve fit today’s prompt, CONTRAST, so much better if I had taken a photo of the glass next to my grandpa’s face (yes, that’s my Pop), but the black on the clear glass is an okay 2nd go at it.

And here’s a photo for February 2nd: I ❤️ this sweet SIGHT!

I was really excited about it, but forgot to post a photo for the Feb photo challenge yesterday. So, here’s one for February 1st: An oldie from this past June - Mouth wide OPEN

He’s picked me a few flowers with help here and there, but this is the first one he stopped and picked for me on his own. 🍀🤍

Book Review: Trees: A Rooted History

I purchased this book a couple of months ago with the intention of using the illustrations as part of a lesson I put together for our little toddler homeschool group we’re apart of. I did end up briefly using it, but that was really just a good excuse to get my hands on it because for some reason it’s been on my wishlist (I LOVE children’s books). I mean, can you blame me, though? The artwork is wonderful! And the book is very informative. There are so many different approaches to trees rather than dialogue and pictures of only trees themselves. The book discusses leaves, roots, and seasons. It talks about seeds and species. There’s a large amount of history dispersed throughout the literature. There are spreads dedicated to what animals eat trees and which ones live in trees. And there is a lot of information about how trees are used to make things. All of the text is accompanied by beautiful, eye-catching illustrations that, in my opinion, are the driving force to purchase the book. I am so happy to have this as part of our personal library now, and I’m excited that it will be useful for many years to come. I’d honestly recommend this book for ALL ages.

Tried a yogurt + honey hair mask today (via Little Green Dot). My hair takes all night to dry, but looking forward to seeing how it feels in the morning.
