This post felt like a little review of where you are right now, and any review that begins with sunshine and sunflowers promises to be positive- to be coming from a good place - and indeed it is. I'm tempted to say many things, Megan, but I really only want to say, "I'm so happy for you. Your big heart deserves some sunshine and flowers."

A wonderful story!!! especially you telling your son to leave the sunflowers and then the next day he ended up with some. Priceless.

Happy earth day to you Megan. Another year around the universe!!

I love that you taught them to give the farmer a choice about what affects him and his livelihood. That gave him the opportunity to show them kindness in return. Thanks for sharing, it's very inspiring

The sun is out today, the moment I read your words.

These boys learn so much from you . You let them understand about responsibility and how not to take what its not theirs.

And because they used your wisdom, the next day they were rewarded ,they got those beautiful sunflowers.

Isn't that amazing?

Isn't that amazing that things unfold anyway?

What a miracle.

Hey, I also want to share that my father used to say the same thing to us about taking shells off the beach… he would say if everyone took one shell there wouldn’t be any shells left…

aww. so sweet. I have to admit, i do take some shells. but i always ask the sea for permission.

Well, to be perfectly authentic, recently when I visited my daughter in Astoria and we went to the beach. I did take home half of an unbroken crab shell that’s sitting in my bathroom.
