Favorite Thing No. 36g (for Garden)

It's no secret that one of my favorite things is my garden. 

I take such pleasure in waiting for it all Winter,

 in cleaning and tidying it in the Spring,

in tending it (and relaxing in it!) all Summer,

 and in putting it to bed in Autumn. 

Often there are visitors.

Sometimes they come to see me.

But most of the time they come to try the Catmint.

It's always exciting to watch things grow and climb.

By day there is always so much color.

By night, the faeries come out of their house to play.

If you come down the path on a summer's day
 and knock at the door and there's no answer....

 ...you'll know where I am.



Knock on Claudia's door and join the party
