Now, I'm pretty sure this is not an apricot tree, but as we came to this corner to turn to go to school this specific pre spring morning, Naomi said, "Wow mom, look at that tree!" It had blossomed overnight, I swear. It reminded me of the primary song, "Popcorn popping on the apricot tree..." I had just had the kids in our ward sing this song and I tried to explain that "popcorn really doesn't come from a 'popcorn tree.' But there is a beautiful blooming tree with white flowers that look like popcorn growing from it." Ironic that this tree just happened to bloom right after the Sunday I had finally explained to the kids that the song is really not true.
