Dandy-lions

To my 5-year-old dandelions are the most beautiful flower in the world (Her daddy sees them as the destroyers of his perfect lawn). She goes up and down the sidewalk in our neighborhood picking and blowing each and every dandelion she sees. I tried to explain to her that they are weeds and that the neighbors really don't want her blowing the seeds in their lawns, but that only seemed to motivate her even more. She has since been on a one girl mission to single handedly increase the dandelion population tenfold.

A few days ago we were in the car and came across a field of dandelions that looked like this:
She looked a me with pride and proclaimed, "See! It worked!"

Oh how I love her!
