I'm sitting here thinking to myself, well it's almost hard to think since there is a symphony of tree frogs going at it. It's hard to believe how loud they are when they are really quite small. It's a nightly thing here in Florida. Anyway, what I was thinking is what do I love more about my garden ... the plants or the critters? Well of course I love my plants, but actually when I'm watching all the critters make their appearances in the garden I feel so happy. And, I do find myself getting certain plants because they will attract hummingbirds or butterflies, etc. And, feeders, birdhouses and birdbaths. Then I realized that when I was a little kid there were 3 jobs that had my attention. Artist, Vet or taking care of animals and working with plants. My career was far from any of those! And now, I find myself designing a secret garden, taking care of animals and working with plants. So, things have sort of come full circle as far as making my childhood dreams come true. I don't need to answer yes or no to my question. All I need is my garden and the joy it collectively gives me.
Thank you for giving me a place to share those thoughts.
