Thunderstorms swept through the area
leaving 1.5 inches of rain.
I checked on the tulips.
These are special tulips. They were saved from the trash by a girlfriend. She did not get them planted in her yard so they laid in her garage for a few months.
She brought them to me. She thought I would be able to magically make them grow!
Mother Nature did save two out of 100. I nurture these two pretty little tulips. Not fancy but special. My gardens are full of stories. Mother Nature grows the flowers and I care for the stories.
These are my Ali tulips.
Today is her birthday.

1.5 inches of rain is quite a sweep. I do hope we get rain this evening. It is supposed to rain and I got some things planted today, with Gary's help of course. I want it all rained in good. Can't believe I am saying this after all the rain we have had this spring. Ha... never happy with the weather I guess. It is too hot too. tee hee...
You've got two miracles there, can't think of better hands to take care of them.
Dear Lisa,
We have been getting good spring rains, not too much at any one time.
I also have planted a few early spring things. It is nice when Mother waters everything in.
We have had a perfect cool spring. Not too cool...
My peonies are growing nicely. I would love to have some in bloom for Memorial Day. So often they are over before Mother's Day!
I am loving the cool, wet spring this year.

Dear Mel,
Sometimes in friendships, we take care, until our friend can join in. My friend is very busy right now. I am so happy to have the little tulips. They remind me of the time my friend and I were close. I keep the door open.
Hugs,
Sherry
