My mother-in-law has such a green thumb.
So whenever she comes to visit, we are always blessed by her little touches to our backyard garden. Abby is her faithful assistant, donning garden gloves, a watering can, and a hoe as she climbs up over the wall to dig with Grandma. She's picked up Grandma's gift for growing beautiful things. This year we are seeing little buds of a bulb they planted together last fall, my favorite flower, ranununculus.
Eric also spent several hours in the backyard with our little gardener last weekend, planting petunias and snapdragons, among other things.
I can't begin to tell you how this little flower makes my heart soar.
I went picture crazy today at the park, but it was SUCH a beautiful day, and I had a lot of fun chasing my beautiful girls!
Love, love, love those kissably round cheekers. :)

As I'm taking a picture of Essie up high on the jungle gym, she decides she wants me to "catch" her; obviously, this wasn't feasible with camera in hand, so I had to tell her no; you can see my finger in the foreground, firmly telling her not to jump off!
And this was her face afterwards . . . ah. :-(
Blowing Dandelions . . .
. . . a little too closely . . .
. . . and then getting "kissed" by them. :)
Going on a hunt for "kinecones" (pinecones).
Let's just say bribery goes a long way!
