Branch: any part or extension of a main body or system; specif. b) a division of a family descending from a common ancestor.
My branch consist of a mother and father; a son, a sister and a brother, 3 nephews, 2 nieces, 8 uncles, 3 aunts, and a host of cousins. Cousins are important branches of a family tree. They provide strength and endurance to the family tree. They are the ones that continue the traditions and keep the tree growing. I pray that we nurture our branches to preserve our original roots for many years to come.
Today I had to take out the camera to capture this wonderful southern spring moment. For those of you in the big city who can''t appreciate this moment-- don't hate, appreciate! Maybe you need to move back to your roots?
He will be like a tree firmly planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in its season. And its leaf does not wither; And whatever he does, he prospers.
Psalm 1:3
Here are a couple of my branches-- my son William, and nephew Yashar enjoying finding and capturing a caterpillar. I was cooking spaghetti at the time that Yashar walked into the house looking for a jar.

How perfect was that?
We decided to keep the caterpillar in the jar to see if we can watch it turn into a beautiful butterfly. Hopefully we will be successful and release a butterfly this spring. We've already gone online to do our research and we know what they eat.
We'll mostly do a little more research to build the perfect habitat for William's "Pet," as he calls it.
I'm not sure if William can keep his hands off of the caterpillar long enough to let it make a successful metamorphosis. But I guess we'll have to wait and see! That's a lot to ask of a 5 year old boy.

Awesome blog site. Great photos! Let them enjoy thier childhood. It is such a short time of life.
aww, poor "My Pet". Some kids can be so mean. But with nature all around William...he will find another pet once he gets over the shock of the lost of this one. Great blog Adriann. I just remember today to check it out again, and you sure have been busy.
