Joyous Tomorrows

 My weekend started off with taking first my mother-in-law to my father-in-law's grave with my second daughter, her children, and the toddlers.  The next day, my youngest daughter, her children (the toddlers) and I took my mother to my father's grave and the Hero's grave.  I visited with all my children in person or by phone, and had time to work in my garden some.   We were glad to have the time to teach the toddlers respect for the dead and for their living elderly.   It was good to spend time with the two ladies that played a great deal of influence in my life.

We started out our week ridding our garden of fire ants, then we decided to go hunting for wild flowers.  Weeds such as Flea bane qualified. The granddaughter wasn't sure what to do when told to smell the flower. We found some wild onions (which I know are really in the garlic family) and woodland violets. I love these. After our search the grandson watered our vertical garden of mints.  Oops some have escaped.  Wonder what mowing it will be like.
