HAPPY MOTHERS' DAY
I know it doesn't look like much now, but it is a start. this is the birth of my rose garden which will border the end of the driveway and provide pleasant viewing for us and our neighbors.
When I went out to water the new roses this morning I realized it was Mother's Day and I had planted three bushes. I decided this should be a memorial garden for our mothers and I named the rose bushes - Lois, Dorothy and Mary after my mother and my two dear aunts.
When JoAnne comes to visit at the end of May, I will give her the opportunity to pick out a rose bush and we will plant it in memory of another mother, my loving cousin and JoAnne's mom, Shirley.
Check this blog later in the summer and see how the girls are blooming.
