So hire a cute teenage boy to do chores in the garden. She'll be out there. I raised daughters... I know these things. ;)

Our grand children are all grown except one...

Where does the time go? I dread the day when they don't want to be outside playing with me when they come over, writing with chalk in the driveway, playing hide and seek, tag, riding bikes, or even shoveling snow as we have all been known to do. I'm hoping that I can keep them interested all summer in what we grow, the bees, the butterflies, the soil. Maybe it will be something that they learn to enjoy later, after the age of electronics being all consuming, etc. A GizzyGirl can hope... but I know what you mean when you say “AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG!”

The days of that for me are coming too fast!
