It was a great day to work outside, and so we did! We planted radishes and carrots in our garden, B and kids dug out weeds and stumps, things were trimmed, and everyone generally worked vigorously.
We purchased two Barberry plants to fill in the front landscape. It became my job to plant them, and I enlisted Livia's "help."
"What are we doing, Mom?" she asked.
I told her that I was going to plant two Barberries and I needed her to help me put the dirt back in the holes. She was eager to comply.
All went well with the first plant.
Then Liv asked me, "Are you ready for the second BARBARIAN?"
After the second Barbarian was planted, I went to the back to fetch the hose. On the way, I had to draw a chalk person for Rhyle, pick up Tate, and watch Owen perform tricks.
By the time I returned to the front... this is what I found. My darling was applying mud with a stick to the front of the house. Just another busy day outside.
