Big Brother was given a carnation at graduation last night; all the students got one, to give to their mothers. I couldn't find a bud vase too readily so I put it in a tall iced tea glass.
After dinner Middle Sister announced that she knew how to make the flower turn color. I let her put several drops of food coloring in the water. She instructed us to wait overnight and we'd see the change.
Little Brother was intrigued by the tall glass containing bright green water and a white flower.
LB: "Why is the water green?"
Me: "Middle Sister wants the flower to drink the green water and turn green."
This fascinated Little Brother, so much so that I needed to add, "You may NOT drink the green water."
