Peer Pressure

We have always

always

always

waited until Mother's Day

to do anything with bedding plants.

 

This past weekend our neighbor and her adorable

preschool daughter

had filled their big, red wagon

with all sorts of flowers

and made their way around the yard

planting and

laughing and

oohing and ahhing

and having so much fun together

that I went and bought

some plants on Monday.

And Tuesday.

And they looked great.

On Wednesday.

 

Last night when I came home from work

I noticed those same neighbors had been busy

covering their handiwork with sheets

so I tromped around in the dark spreading

 a few sheets of my own.

 

It has been snowing all day.

 

All day.

 

All day!
