I love Chamomile too - I pair it with peppermint tea when I have a cold. I did not know it releases its fragrance when crushed. I too have a wildflower garden - think I might copy you. What a lovely idea! Joy,

The most awful thing I had to go thru was when my daughter started hanging around with wrong crowd when she was in her teens. She started running away, and it was only God that brought us thru! Now she is attending church with us, is saved and sorry, and lives about 5 minutes away. This is my 6th try! Hoping my comment takes this time.

I know when I've had teens going through "stuff" the Lord has really laid it on my heart to just back off and pray. Amazing how much prayer changes things! God is good! Thanks for sharing with us, June. :) Wow, how neat that Melody’s book helped her so much.
