A GARDEN OF LOVE~

A garden of love has been growing in this soon to be grandmother's heart...My first grand baby is due in two weeks...two weeks and a baby boy will be residing next door...during these past nine months I have been dreaming of all the wonderful things I want to share with this precious boy...walks through our woods, a first boat ride to the Island to visit his Nanny and Papa, tractor rides, gathering eggs from the hen house, and sharing my love of gardening...

With the help of Sharon Lovejoy this granny shall be prepared. Sharon is the author of many wonderful books, my two personal favorites: Toad Cottage & Shootings Stars...

and Sunflower Houses...both books are simply delightful and are filled with ideas geared toward children and their grownups...you will find instructions on faerie houses, firefly lanterns, worm hotels and mud pies...and speaking of mud, I bought the baby his first pair of puddle boots...jumping in puddles is serious business you know...

while also perfect for adventures in the garden...whether it be planting seeds, digging for worms, burying a time capsule, growing a bean tee pee or a sunflower house...puddle boots come in very handy...Oh, how wonderful this new adventure of being a granny is going to be...now, if only his parent's would decide on a name, I cannot keep referring to him as Leroy. Also grandmotherly advice is always welcomed!
