OK, I'll do one more, to share what's going on outside: the garden and yard are really bumping. Suzannah is creating beauty in the garden, the clover is covering the lawn with pretty white flowers, and in the morning when I sit at my spot, I hear all sorts of birds chirping, including the morning doves with there distinctive owl-sounding hoots. At night we've got crowds of fireflies, filling the world with their magic, and the chorus of frogs (I think spring peepers?) and crickets. The Fruit tree's Suzannah has planted are exploding, growing so quickly, and her blackberry patch is also exploding out. It's cooled down a bit after some really hot days, and walking in the evening has been wonderful, with not too many bugs (unless we stop under street lights), a nice breeze, and some bright stars and planets in the sky. Especially in the morning, watching the rising sunlight filter through the leaves, it feels like heaven. I'm so grateful for the habit I've created of taking a few moments in the morning, to enjoy the richness and beauty around me that nature provides. It is a simple and free pleasure, but one of the most meaningful and enriching, in my life.
Including some pictures of the garden. It will be fun to see how the perennials grow, over the years.
May your own season be full of growth and beauty.
