Dandelion Fun #WeeklySmile
Me and my dad went outside on the lawn Sunday, which is covered in dandelions right now.

The breeze pushed the seeds towards my dad, and he tried to dodge them as … Continue reading Dandelion Fun #WeeklySmile
It’s Finally Warm! Yes, I’m Excited. #WeeklySmile
Spring has been a long time coming here, in northern New England. Weeks of cold and rain, and not a leaf bud in sight.

#BP #Friendship: Madnes and Oz
How long have they known each other, and how close are they? Madnes and Oz have known each other since they were children. They are cousins, and they used to be very close, two peas in a pod, though they differ in personality. Sadly, things didn’t stay that way. A change overcame Oz, an icy cold, and he began hating the world and everything he once loved. Madnes didn’t understand why or where this change was coming from, but it put an end to their friendship. And soon Oz moved away with his parents, and Madnes couldn’t bring himself to say goodbye or try and mend the broken bond between them.
