wild. flowers.

Idaho Spring has been wild. The weather changes by the hour . From sunshine to wind to hail to rain. All this moisture and constant atmospheric pressure change produces something incredible. Fields of green sprinkled with flowers, streets lined with blooming trees that are competing for a post card. The unsettled weather creates beauty and growth. Which as a parent I find a life parallel. Kids are constantly changing, testing boundaries and now that I have some pre teens the moods are a lot like an Idaho spring, unpredictable. They do a pretty good job of taking turns on who wants to be the challenge, who wants to be the hero, and who wants to bug everyone else just for the heck of it. I try to analyze behavior but as soon as I figure out where its coming from the wind has shifted. So I am going bask in the sun rays, the good days, and dance between the rain drops, the days that are a challenge. And be thankful for my 3 wild flowers.
