In Mom’s Garden
Mom and I are on a little trip and I have to hustle, so I don’t have a story today. Actually, I’ve been collecting tons of stories for you all, but I haven’t had the time to polish them up.
So I thought you might like to tour Mom’s garden in the meantime.
My niece cuddles with her new puppy from the Colorado Dachshund Rescue.

That’s ok. A picture is worth a thousand words. Enjoy your time with your mom. It’s summer! Almost.
Yes, it’s so nice to get some time to travel with her. Thanks! Yes, it feels like summer most days. 🙂

Oh how beautiful
Hi Joanne–
The garden is something she loves so much. It’s always so much work, so I like that this way I can share some of the fruits of her labor! 🙂
Paige
What a beautiful garden. 🙂
Thank you, Imelda! I’ll tell Mom that you liked it. 🙂
Paige
A truly lovely garden, Paige – my compliments to your mum ! And my wishes for their forever paired happiness to your niece and her pretty little dachsund ! 🙂
Beautiful! I did not know that gardens like this really exist. Her hard work has resulted in a wonderful thing 🙂
Sweet! The garden, the niece, AND the dog! 🙂
I love your mom’s garden especially the poppies. My grandmother grew poppies in her garden.
Poppies AND puppies…nice!
🙂 You got it, VP! A good pair if the puppy will behave.

Such a glorious garden.
