My mom gave me a bulb for Christmas five years ago. In a few weeks it grew and bloomed into some beautiful flowers. After a while the flowers and greenery died off. Since that time it has sat in its vase looking ugly. It was one of those things I knew I should throw away, but I didn't. At one time the bulb got shriveled up and small and would fall through the top of the vase (it's in a vase with just water in the bottom) and I wrapped a few paper towels around it to hold it up. All of the sudden about a week ago we noticed some green things poking out of the top of it. It took no time before they grew really big, and then yesterday it bloomed. I don't even know what kind of flower it is. I think after it dies off this time I will research how to force it to bloom again so we can have beautiful flowers from it more often than every five years.
On another note, here is a bigger of Carson showing off his Deron Williams shirt he got at the Jazz game. Try not to look at his jagged bangs where he decided to try to give himself a haircut. All I could think of when he did it was, "You are way too old to be cutting your own hair." Don't kids usually do it when they are three or four years old? He did cut his own hair once before when he was in Kindergarten. I sent him to school looking very cute and he came home with big jagged chunks out of his hair.
Sorry, but as long as the Jazz are doing good I can't help but talk about them here. They are our only major league team, besides soccer, that we have here. I'm warning you now that if Real Salt Lake start doing really good I'll talk about them a lot, too. We love our sports teams. If I get really desperate I might start talking about our minor league teams, too, like the Salt Lake Bees baseball team. They are doing really good so far this year. So far they are 24-3. I was just reminded of another thing I want to say about our sports teams, but I'll save it for another post since I've already strayed enough on this one.
