Yesterday was my sweet mom's birthday. I won't tell you how old she is because she would have my head for that. I couldn't get on blogger yesterday for some reason but since it's up and running today, Happy Birthday again, Mom!
Kayla and I have been so excited to plant some flowers. Yesterday we finally got around to it. Planting makes me so happy. We're starting small because we fear the deer will make a feast of our flowers. We'll see.
One quick story. Kayla was looking for a place for her petunias when I heard, "Mom. There's a snake." Just like that. Her voice might have been calm and quiet but she was next to me in a flash. Sure enough, a long black snake was resting in our periwinkle. I took a picture but I'll spare you. So, no flowers there for the time being. That thing slithered down a hole next to our steps. Jack's been watching for it to reappear. We'll see about that, too. (As I'm finishing this, the snake has just reappeared!)

That picture has some dark that almost looks like a snake. Bravo to Kayla for remaining so calm. And, I love lilacs and wish I could have them here (too hot I think)....the scent is wonderful. Reminds me of my childhood when I had my very own lilac bush.
Samuel and Jack both came running up to me this morning to tell me the news... they were SO excited!
