about a conversation I was listening to on the radio. A doctor told the story of a six-year-old girl who came to see him for a sore throat and ear ache.
She refused to open her mouth for him, so he asked the mother to get her to open it. The mother’s reply was “It’s her body, she can decide what she wants to do.” That quickly sparked remarks from other who were present. (I don’t think it was said if she ever opened her mouth.) I’m thinking that mother’s action will help depict the little girl as she grows up. I can only imagine what would have happened if I did that when I was six.

GOING ON VACATION?
KEEP HOUSEPLANTS UNHARMED WHEN ON VACATION
(Taken from Grandma Putt’s Problem Solver)
Line the bathtub with trash bags, and cover with a wet towel. Set the plants on the towel, and just before you leave, water them thoroughly. Assuming the pots have drainage holes, your plants should be fine for two weeks or so.
GET MORE SPACE IN YOUR LUGGAGE
When packing clothes in suitcase, don’t lay them flat, roll instead. They will take less space and should unfold with less wrinkles.

A weed is a plant whose virtue has not yet been discovered.
You can’t run away from trouble. There’ no place that far.
