'Go, Dog. Go!' By P.D. Eastman
Has anyone else read the butterfly bush story by Joanna Gaines ? It's one of my favorites so I'll sum it up for you in case you haven't. Five years ago Joanna planted a butterfly bush outside her daughter's bedroom. She planted it so that one day her daughter would be able to enjoy watching the butterflies outside yet, overtime, Joanna had forgotten all about it. Until one day she noticed her daughter captivated by what was outside of the window. Her daughter excitedly showed her mother the hummingbird that visited her each day along with the butterflies. Joanna noted how this story was the perfect metaphor for parenting. That we plant seeds and hope that they blossom into something and we may even forget about them or not realize what we're doing counts until our love and lessons emerge over time.
