Bloom Where You Are Planted

'Cause you're beautiful like a flower
More valuable than a diamond
You are powerful like a fire
You can heal the world with your mind.

There is nothing in the world that you cannot do
When you believe in you, who are beautiful
Yeah, you, who are brilliant
Yeah, you, who are powerful
Yeah, you, who are resilient.'
- via India Arie


Through my daughters eyes...
I see beauty...i see innocence...
I see the world in another light.

Flowers she picks for me to show her love.

"The flower that blooms in adversity
is the most rare & beautiful of all."
- via Mulan

Such an adorable post :) My heart always melts when kids pick flowers, such a perfect way to show love. When I was in Poland my little cousins picked flowers for me - even though most of them were weeds, I thought it was the most beautiful bouquet :) Hope you had a great weekend!
