Flower Pressing

I used to do this every year. Of course I said "used to" because for the last several years of my life I feel like I've been rushing.

I need to stop.





So today it was 60 degrees and sunny (yesterday it had snowed!) so while my oldest was at school my 3-year-old and I went outside to collect flowers to press. She did really well, although she really wants to get to the "make stuff with them" part right now hopefully in a couple weeks she'll still be into it.



I regret not having pressed any flowers from when we lived in New Mexico. I try not to keep a running tally of them (my regrets) but lately it seems to be all I've been thinking about.
