The Marshmallow Tree...

Earlier this spring I was pushing Mel on the swings when she said, "Look Mommy!  A marshmallow tree."

When you look at the photo, you will see a flowering pear tree.

But to a three year old it's a marshmallow tree! 

I could have corrected her and told her there is no such thing as a marshmallow tree then explained to her that it was a flowering pear tree, but that would have taken the fun out of it!

I feel imagination is one of the greatest things, so why ruin it?

So, until she figures it out for herself, we have a marshmallow tree growing in the backyard!
