February 25

I'm not a nature girl. Mucking through muck on a camping trip or sleeping in a tent rank up there with, oh, having a mild ear infection. So it stands to reason that it's not often that I'm awed --and I mean really awed-- by something I find outside. Today I --or rather Isaac-- found an exception to that rule.

Amazing, isn't it? An itty, bitty intricate plant sprung from an even itty-bittier seed. A reminder that not only do small things come in small packages, but that those things can be indescribably --surprisingly-- beautiful, too.
