I don't think anything teaches patience more gently and naturally to a child than tending one's own little spot of earth. So, back in the enchanted garden to check up on things. All's well-watered... mostly thanks to the Mister placing auto-drip irrigation around. Flowers are growing. Had to stop and make a garden smock for my dear little helper here. Had this lovely fabric called, Language of the (from Susan Branch) that was perfect for it. I'm not sure if it's available anymore, purchased it through mail-order 
when it first came out quite a few years ago. By coincidence, this project falls on the heels of the 'Heart of the Home' store opening in California, this Mother's Day Weekend. Looks like it will be a fun event!
