The Grass Is Always Greener In The Kitchen

Kids are pretty rad people. It's too bad that as we age we seem to lose that confident sense of belief that we had as children. The other day I was making dinner and Mollie was planting grass seeds in this tiny vase/refrigerator magnet. In typical mom fashion I said, "Fred, that's never gonna work". After all, it's a very shallow vessel and there was hardly any dirt and she dumped a ton of water on the damn thing AND we don't get much natural light in our kitchen (and who really wants a vase of wet dirt on their fridge?). She was optimistic in spite of my nay saying. We agreed to disagree. I forgot all about it until yesterday, when I went to get something out of the fridge. There it was, proof of Mollie's optimism. I stand corrected. Thank you, Mollie for reminding me to look for the possibilities and not to always expect the worst. You rule.
