Say thank you, with a kiss.
Put them in a vase on the kitchen table.
Tell them not to pick the neighbor’s flowers anymore!!
And then pray that the neighbors don’t look in the window.

How sweet!
awww at least you know they were thinking about you ;)
I like to use mine for photos —– but my kids pick them before I get a chance

Well handled, just like a pro. Your kids have great taste!
You can’t blame them for wanting to pick them…they are really beautiful!

Awww — that’s still really sweet. :)
I just get weeds . . . but, she is only two.

At least their hearts were in the right place! They are pretty flowers.

I remember picking the neighbors flowers as a child – and having her come out and yell at me. They were just so pretty and tempting. What a different approach I would take if a child picked the flowers in my garden – kindness, understanding, and a gentle reprimand is really all that it takes. I know it would have meant a lot to me.

Those daffodils are gorgeous — lets you know Spring is really here. I love the thought of smiling faces and little hands with flowers for you!

Catchy dilemma and solution. If I were the neighbor, I think I’d smile. I hope your neighbor does the same.

Awww! Luckily our neighbors are my parents ;) I don’t think they’d mind. Still, it’s nice to ask :)

Luckily our neighbors are nice and have kids, too. For all I know, they think their kids picked the flowers!
That’s right. They would have died soon, anyway! :) And they probably have a similar vase in their kitchen, too.
I just hope there were enough that the neighbors didn’t notice the missing flowers. :)
No, they really don’t. And they only thought of how pretty the flowers were, not how pretty the flowers were IN THE NEIGHBOR’S GARDEN. ;)
Oh but they’re SO pretty! ;)

that is so funny and i’m sure the neighbor would forgive them if they saw how pretty they look in your vase :)
.-= Amy´s last blog ..Family Game Night… =-.
Ahhh…the flowers wouldn’t have lasted forever anyway. The kids did your neighbor a favor :)
Very sweet :)

I’ve had that happen before. It can be so embarrassing. At least it can be pretty for a while.

LOL!!! That’s awesome, he chose really pretty ones. And cool pic of the flowers!
Nice shot!! Kids don’t know land boundaries, do they? They were just thinking about how happy the flowers would make you. I love those moments.
