Flower Runs

It’s been one year since I started buying flowers for the house weekly. I’m a regular at a flower shop 🥰🥹.

The best thing to come from this is how much my boys enjoy it. They insist including their rooms - so they get small bouquet every week as well.

As a boy mom who still would love a little girl - It’s a special ritual to share with them and something I look forward to sharing for years to come.

4/9 Edited to

... Read moreSticking to a weekly flower run has been a surprisingly uplifting habit that extends well beyond just decorating the house. From my personal experience, these trips to the flower shop turn into little celebrations for my family, especially for my boys, who eagerly choose blooms for their own rooms. This involvement gives them a sense of responsibility and pride, nurturing their appreciation for beauty and nature. Moreover, having fresh flowers around consistently contributes positively to our home's atmosphere. It elevates moods, adds color to each space, and gives everyone a small but meaningful reminder to slow down and appreciate the simple pleasures in life. Over time, this ritual has become more than just buying flowers—it's a weekly pause that reconnects us. I also found that choosing flowers with my boys sparks conversations and curiosity. They ask about the names, colors, and scents, which opens a window to nature and creativity. Even without a daughter, this tradition provides a heartfelt way to share the idea of nurturing and care, fostering closeness in a uniquely personal way. If you're considering starting a similar routine, try involving your family in choosing different types of flowers each week to keep it fresh and exciting. You might discover that this small change can bring a deeper sense of joy and togetherness into your home, just like it did for ours.
