An opportunity to shop at the flower farm just down the hill
With my two very lovely girls.
Both of them love flowers and earth and planting
And I do too!
So, armed with my mother's day gift certificate, my girls and a big cart,
The adventure began.
Oh the joy of the colors and fresh smells and the promise of what will come!
We filled the cart with vegetables (the tomato bush already bearing many little cherry tomatoes) basket stuffers, begonias, tiny straw sunflower plants, lobelia, allysum and other wee baskets bursting with color and life and joy.
What fun working together on the back patio, putting together the baskets and messing in the dirt, arranging and rearranging the colorful displays till things felt balanced and happy.
Watching the girls, my girls, interacting and enjoying each other as they worked together.
The conversation flowed and there was such comfort in our togetherness.
The dogs kept us company and the weather was lovely.
One of those days that drops out of heaven
The simplicity and perfection of the moments creating a warm sweet memory.
