The above mentioned Hannah tried to help me this Spring with some planting, but ended up yanking something recently planted, came to me with it in her hand and said, "what's this?". It was then that I decided to take some sage advice and plant a little garden just for her.

I took two plastic tubs, only about 18"x12"x5", and filled them with soil. I bought one of those boxes of mixed wildflower seeds at the Dollar Store and sprinkled them into the soil. She has never been interested in them. Not when they first poked their little heads above ground. Not when the first tiny little white flowers opened up. Not even today, with such a pretty array of colorful little flowers filling the tubs. So, although it's called Hanna's Garden, I am the one who cares for it, takes pride in it, and finds joy in it.

Here's Hannah's Garden last weekend...
