Since we traveled home from Turkey all day on Mother's Day...which was horrendously long incidentally and we ended up in Mosul on accident because of construction...the kids surprised me with a little outing the day after Mother's Day!
The kids put a blind fold on me and then led me precariously through the streets...
... to this amazing place! I got to pick out roses for our garden! Can you believe this lush and beautiful nursery exists in Iraq?! The guys that run it are fiercely proud of their flowers and apparently won't sell any of the big roses...only the minis!
so we got this beautiful orange one
this fuschia tea rose
and after some coercing managed to get this larger yellow one wrangled out of their hands! They are now planted in my garden and are amazingly beautiful and fragrant! I love my fun family! I am one blessed Momma!
