Gardening From the Other Side

My grandma Snell loved gardening.  

Her yard was always beautifully arranged with flowers and nicely pruned foliage.

I remember her teaching me how to get bulbs out of the ground and save them for the next season.

I'm still working on the beautiful flower and yard part.

But every morning when I'm out in the garden I think of her.

I know I have a part of her in me.

I always kill most plants.

The only thing I really grow well are weeds.

So I'm thinking that Grandma Snell must be helping out our little garden from the other side.

Maybe she's gardening right along beside me.

And remember that cute little avocado tree that poked it's little head out on Easter morning.

Turns out both seeds he planted came up that day.

And they're growing quickly.
