We are slowly discovering exactly what being a homeowner entails. Mowing and raking and planting and weeding and watering.....oh my! We spent one of the recent gorgeous weekends raking up all of our pine straw and replacing it with woodchips. We completely underestimated how many bags we would need and made several trips to Lowe's before we were finished. It came out great and I am very excited to get some flowers planted. And I am less worried about keeping up with the yardwork after seeing what a great helper Zawadi is going to be. She loved digging in the dirt and had the hose mastered in a matter of seconds. She thinks pulling weeds out is a fun game, especially when we find earthworms to play with! Now if only we could teach her to run the lawn mower.
