Best Shot Monday ~ Prosper

Received these lovely tulips from mama Andrea and her lil' man on his last day at Casa T since I'm closing for the summer and he'll be starting at a new school this week. Like this tulip, he was once a small seedling waiting to grow. He soaked up all the food I gave him, and has now blossomed into a vibrant and bold flower. And I hope I have helped provide him the strong roots to continue to discover and be creative as he continues to flourish and evolve.

Love the pic of Colton and you, I also say the book you made at Andrea's house and I got all misty eyed when I saw the cover..

Beautiful -- both photos!! I love the feel of your house. You are so calm and provide such a warm and engaging atmosphere. I'm sure the C-man blossomed very well in your care and casa.

If I needed a place for my little C. I would want him to be with you.

I agree with Jaimee -- stunning is absolutely the best way to describe these. Wow.

Oh, I'm sad just looking at this! I know he will miss you but be able to use what you have taught him in his new school.
