Forever Flowers

So the other day Darrell wanted to get me flowers because he knew I'd had a few rough days at home with William, but he was out of his allowance money so he couldn't afford to buy me any (yes, we do allowances, and yes, it works incredibly well. I can't tell you how many "money" arguments we've probably avoided because of our allowance system). His solution? Make me a bouquet.

Is that not awesome? And I think I like it even more than a "real" bouquet because it'll last forever. The only thing that would have made it better would have been if he had used those scented markers--do you remember those? I don't know if I ever actually colored with them; I think I just periodically took the caps off and smelled them. (Actually... Now that I think about it... I'm pretty sure the markers were my sister's and I was forbidden from using them, which was why I just took the lids off to smell them without actually coloring. My sister and I were not exactly "buddy-buddy" growing up.)
