In early spring, if you are near any wet mucky areas, you may get to see the bright yellow flowers of the Cowslip aka Marsh Marigold. In most wildflower guides they are called Marsh Marigolds (Caltha palustris). They do look a little bit like butter cups, and that is because they actually are in the buttercup family. These wildflowers can be found at edges of ponds and moist areas, in shallow water, in hardwood swamps, in marshes, ditches, wet woods, and any swampy areas. They do best in open or...

As a new mom and even as a seasoned mother people will solicit you advice. Some of it is great, some bad, and some bizarre. All usually unasked for and some of the time given by people you do not know or think even like you.
