I need help identifying this plant that I posted on my blog. It is really bugging me that we can't find out what it is. We are really usually very good investigators. Thanks for any help anyone can give.
Thanks!!

Well, I am TERRIBLE with plant identification, but do any of these look like it?

one mustard plant picture
another (looks different to me - a different variety?)

It seems very pretty (I'm partial to yellow flowers), so I'm curious what it is as well....

EDITED: The above links do not look very similar, BUT a picture of a mustard plant I printed off the internet months ago (that I now can't find) looks very very very similar - little green thingies and all (I said I'm no good at this - I'll be learning right along with my children who WILL be learning all of this!).

I posted a new picture. It shows how small the "blossoms?"
are.

I think that you are right Nancy. I googled spurge and I think it is definitely wood spurge. I didn't imagine that it was so poisonous though.

Thank's ladies. I knew that you would come through for me.
