U.S. Botanical Garden

By raisingourquadsquad

Come escape with me

I absolutely LOVE being in the city on such beautiful summer-esque days. It’s still a wee bit early for most blooms. My MIL rose bushes would take center stage in this garden.

I guess that just means we’ll have to make another visit when the garden is more vibrant, but these pics of the lush greenery are beautiful in their own right.

I even managed to catch a bird mid flight

Have a great afternoon.

I love this post!! Being stuck in an office in a congested and traffic-ridden city means my mental escape comes in all forms. Today, through this post, I am journeying through a tropical paradise surrounded by nature and animals! Lovely!!

Happy Easter everyone. This is how we do it Jamaican style!! 🐰 My inner fat girl been waiting on this for months! LITERALLY. I've been on a diet for the past four days. #Jamaican #island #islandgirl #easter #proudjamaican

Me:- kiddos take a pic...it's their cue to be silly. Smh but I love the joy on Jaeden's face. So after the kiddos appointment yesterday we ventured around town (down the block 😆) We have driven through La Plata for SIX years and we never stop other than ER visits and Starbucks drive thru. I'm glad we stopped in for a quick visit (the kiddos wanted to go home to play w/ the neighbor). It was such a treat and thanks for the hospitality.

How often does your kiddos go to the dentist and have an AMAZING experience? I'm not talking about ZERO cavity report (which the little three had by the way) but I'm talking about feeling like you matter while being in the chair. Listen when we go to doc/dental offices it's a process...its FOUR LITTLES being seen, sometimes there is no true interaction, you feel rushed and not heard.... it's all about getting to the next patient. It was not like that, my kiddos were excited to be AT the dentist. ' ' Today was the first time we met Dr Pope and it felt like we knew him FOREVER. So in my previous post I mentioned it was Jaxson's 1st dental visit (almost 2) the reason our beloved dentist left practice, we used his replacement a few times and she was great but she didn't fill Dr Rizzo's void. After a few unsuccessful attempts to get base appts, I simply gave up on the entire process.My kiddos brush regularly so I wasn't worried. ' ' Let me be honest, I was skeptical when we walked in but man was I in for a pleasant surprise! Everyone knew us (I mean how can you ignore the J Crew circus 😁 or it could just be they were excited to go home. I'll go with the former...but either way they knew the kiddos names and they interacted with them) and my littles got to be a part of something they've probably never dreamt of doing (dentist has never been a career choice). On top of it all, we had the entire place to ourselves!

When you've already had your turn in the dentist chair and he reports zero cavities. This guy rocked it! No tears, no fuss. Yes, I know I'm way behind on his check ups, at this point the other kiddos had at least 3 visits but we're here now and all was well. Time to go get big sis then back to the dentist for the twinsies visit.

I think my kiddos just have me around for snacks y'all but I'll take these days where they beg me to take them on adventures. On a serious note, This day was just what I needed to make it through the second half of this week. It was the most amazing after school trip to DC and the kiddos got the see the monuments lit up at night (rare for then)...it was magical. ' ' I haven't been sleeping well, my mind have been bogged down with all this negativity on the news and various social media platforms. I know no solution comes from stressing but it's hard when things hits close to home. My kiddos school received a threat of violence and the next town over they caught multiple wanna be adults at school with guns and then there was a school bus accident which lead to a fatality, they caught a guy planning to drive through the crowds and kill as many people possible at the National Harbor. ' ' ' There's so much hatred in this world robbing our kiddos of their innocence, destroying our families, our communities. While I turn my worries and fears to God and I continue to pray I have made the conscious decision to go back to the days where I ignore the news and focus instead on the positive because we all have so much to be thankful for. Our successes might not be flashy like we hope or like others we compare ourselves to but its your story, it is unique to you. Embrace it. There's so much beauty in this world, the good surely outweighs the bad. I'm going to focus on that. ' ' I know it's a long one, sorry but I needed to get this out. GN

You are magic baby girl, don't you ever forget it 👑
