Saving...
In the Garden
Davies
When we bought our
home in the mountains on a bluff overlooking the small town of
Harlan, Kentucky, the yard was seriously overgrown. Having sat
empty for two years, the yard had been neglected.
Little did I know that within a month’s time, as Spring came my
yard would be filled with hundreds and hundreds of beautiful
flowers. From daffodils to lilies, to tuplis, to peonies and more
everywhere you looked were blossoms galore. I thought I had died
and gone to heaven!
Since
then we have worked hard to remove the overgrown bushes, the weeds,
and have planted hundreds of new plants. We are not nearly done! It
will be years before the yard is back to its orginal glory. But
until then, we will enjoy planting, and weeding (ha!), and
designing the garden of our dreams…
Carve
out your own garden space. Whether you live in a small, town
apartment or a rambling farm house, you need to surround
yourself with beautiful living things. Be blessed by God’s
handiwork!
