Yard Work


Todd is a perfectionist about our lawn. Each Fall, we have to scalp the grass, rake the thatch, aerate, and reseed. That may not sound like a lot, but trust me when I say that it is. We also trimmed the trees by the street and sidewalk and the shrubs in our flower beds. I enjoy being outside and working in the yard. I love planting flowers and seeing them grow. Let me restate that.....I like to plant, although it is hard work sometimes, but the end result is so beautiful. I love seeing the flowers grow and bloom in the spring. My Granny had a green thumb and a real love for gardening. I am thankful that is one of the things that I learned from her and that I still enjoy doing. I often think of her when I see a beautiful garden or flower. Granny's favorite flower was a lily. I wish she could see my Lilly! I know that she would be so proud and happy!
