After a Good Work Session

Spent this afternoon working in the side garden. There was so much satisfaction in clearing out that side of the yard. And I pruned the roses, and cleared out the debris from the iris. Something that I seldom get accomplished before mid-June. Later, I sat outside and listened to the birds sing and felt the breeze blow gently in the early evening. There is such joy and wonder in working in the soil. I look at the raised perennial bed and see the gaps that I planted this spring and all I can do is hope that they will thrive and survive. And I know that from all this early season work, will come the joy of watching a garden develop and take shape. There is so much more to do.. yet when I look and see where I have gone with the garden that I started with, yes, I have gone far with it.. and hope to bring it even closer to the yard that I envision. With love and peace, Kristi
