When I was a little girl The Secret Garden was one of my favorite stories.. I thought to myself, when I am grown up I will have a garden of my own. I will cut fresh flowers and keep them on our tables and beside our beds. I will spend time with my daughters and together we’ll share stories while working in the garden….
The garden is real, it may not be the lush lovely thing that the movies and books portray, but the time together has grown more than any bloom will ever share…we love cutting flowers from the cutting garden and planting beds around our home not because we’re good at it, or plant perfect rows in our box garden, but because in being together and watching things we tend by hand….grow….we remember that all things, especially motherhood, grow into lovely when time is simply shared with your child…and watching her grow as well!
Tomorrows get here awfully fast…..make today a someday!
