Something Special

A few days ago from Curly:

I heard on the radio that the bluebonnets are blooming. Are they?
--Yes.
Oh.

The next day, while pulling out of our driveway which has quite the view of bluebonnets:
Tammy! The bluebonnets are blooming!!
--You're right!
What does that mean, anyway?

It means this:

Last night, the kids' caseworker was over. Curly is notorious for constantly interrupting when all of our social worker types are over. This time though, the interruption was authentic and came with the cutest look of wonder I have ever seen out of this kid:

"Tammy! I have to show you something!! It's something special!!!"

Special indeed:
"All of our seeds are growing! Every single one! No one was left behind!!"

As it should be.
