Happy Mother's Day Flowers

 To all the Mom's all over the world Happy Mother's Day! 

I came out yesterday morning to find the these flowers in full bloom and the tulips are just beginning to open.  I'm sure by this afternoon they will all be open.

I'm sad to report that we lost two hanging baskets of strawberries.  They didn't survive the horrible winter.  I will have to replace them when I get to the garden centre.  A few of the strawberries near the house did make it but very few.

We are suppose to be able to plant a vegetable garden in two weeks but there is still a very big possibility of frost.  I will turn the soil and add new earth but except for the frost hearty plants like the peas, potatoes, and onion I will hold off for another week.
Well, that's all for today.  Go out into the garden and teach your kids where their food comes from.  It's so important that they learn how to grow vegetables.  If they grow vegetables they are more likely to try them.
