What’s happening that’s making you smile?
I hope we’re all having a good week so far. I’ve got £20 on my Nectar card after an Argos purchase, that’s definitely a win.
Other things that have made me smile this week include my peace lily putting out two bracts and finding a hoverfly larva wiggling around on my back after a walk yesterday - which I subsequently took outside to a bush. On that walk I met a lovely puppy in the park, his name was Tucker. This morning I found an affectionately named Cucmber spider in the bathroom which I also subsequently took outside to a bush. I’m sensing a theme this week! This is your reminder to look out for and appreciate the small things - unless you have arachnophobia.
My daughter would love finding that spider. We got an app called iSeek that allows you to scan animals and plants and it names them for you. She has became obsessed with nature and has amassed a huge library of stuff she’s scanned. Her favourite so far was a purple flower I’d picked for her while out a walk - turns out it’s something called Selfheal.
She’s always telling me some wee bit of info she got from the app. I love it.
That is really sweet, what a great way for your daughter to develop an interest in nature and in turn something for you to bond over. The app looks great and it doesn’t have any stupid subscription costs - a true educational app, love that. I might even download it myself, wish I’d known about it prior to finding my little bug friends! Lol.
