Hello Dear lady, I think your story of teenage blossoming love so very romantic. I guess your husband was a gentleman even when he was young. A lovely memory. That looks like a thistle flower, but don't they usually have dreadful prickly stems and leaves?

Our lot is even a little smaller and my husband is helping me with all the heavy work and even then sometimes it seems to be overwhelming to me. Your garden is looking very good on the photos, so give yourself a pad on the shoulder.

Nothing else will do!<br />Rainbows have a very special place in my heart and perhaps one day I'll write of it.<br />Childhood sweethearts, yours and DH story always touches me deeply. A lot of memories over 47 years....<br />Your plants are always lovely and as you know I'm no help there!<br />You say 1/4 an acre - I can remember when the old 1/4 acre was the standard house block here, but gosh how that has changed!<br />I can but imagine that many times the size of the garden would be daunting,especially the boundary lines. But what a garden it is!<br />A wonderful end to your post and so true, amid the heartaches and challenges of a new day, each one of them is indeed a 'gift'.<br />Much love and hugs Lorraine.<br />Rose<br />xx<br />Rose ~ from Ozhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01908281749611280188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5353873250655389819.post-16157230849463709652013-07-04T16:28:40.028-04:002013-07-04T16:28:40.028-04:00Happy 4th of July to you.
