Reading this reminded me of so many nice memories and filled me with warm feeling of appreciation for the way you very successfully built a foundation of curiosity (and love of actual nature 😂) in me. Thanks Mommy 💞💞💞
Great advice, Heather! Everything was a science experiment when my girls were growing up. I actually would should “SCIENCE!” if I found something like a cicada shell, lizard, cool rock, etc.
I’d add to this advice: place a couple of bird houses in the yard, not too close together as most birds appreciate distance between themselves and neighbors. Also, a bat box can attract the mosquito-devouring critters. Both also add to the enjoyment of nature!

Aw, shucks :)
"I was wrong" That's powerful! And it doesn't mean you've failed morally :) Great to think about!
Indeed! The other 3 sentences that lead to wisdom, per Gamache, are “I am sorry.” “I don’t know.” and “I need help.” Powerful.
Yes, yes, yes, & yes. This is profound! Thank you!
