Her Bit of Earth

Cat got the itch to plant some flowers this year and diligently watered her seeds for months.  She planted Larkspur, Blue Bachelor's Buttons, Dwarf Yellow Sunflowers, Cosmos, and Rainbow Zinnias.  We have all enjoyed the lovely little display around the tree in our front yard.


“However many years she lived, Mary always felt that
'she should never forget that first morning when her garden began to grow'.” 


“Sometimes since I've been in the garden I've looked up through the trees at the sky and I have had a strange feeling of being happy as if something was pushing and drawing in my chest and making me breathe fast. Magic is always pushing and drawing and making things out of nothing. Everything is made out of magic, leaves and trees, flowers and birds, badgers and foxes and squirrels and people. So it must be all around us. In this garden - in all the places.”
