My mother is a floral designer and has been for 15 years through a local flower shop and is now the designer/owner at Gardens of Grace. Each year she comes in and teaches a floral arranging class to my students and they create an arrangement for the special mother figure in their life for Mother's Day. They learn about what a florist is, and how the design process she goes through to create something special! It's a favorite time of the year having my mother come and see what I love to do first hand, and for her to share what she loves to do with the special little people in my classroom! My niece even came in to join the fun! :)
Sometimes you get discouraged
Because I am so small
And always leave dirty marks
On furniture and walls.
But every day I'm growing
I'll be grown up some day
And all those little dirty marks
Will all have gone away.
As I grow, I'll change a lot,
The years will fly right by.
You'll wonder how I grew so quick
When and where and why?
I may be still very small
But this I'd like to say
I love you very, very BIG
Happy Mother's Day!
