Babies dandelions then...which I have just saved one from certain death.


I am a baby saver, the poor little mite blowing uncontrollably in the wind straight in through my open window..but I caught it and gently released it out the other window into the night sky..

I saved that baby from a gruesome death by hoover...I think that deserves a tibb award for bravery
