It has been 4 weeks now since my surgery. I am doing very well, and today I was able to do something that has always been so therapeutic for me...getting my hands in some dirt and planting something. At Jane's house, she has this most amazing backyard, lots of clay pots with plants, grass, trees...it is just a place that invites you to sit down and just enjoy. I saw an idea for a stack of clay pots that would fit right into Jane's backyard. Jane agreed to let me take on this project as a gift for her.
I had so much fun buying the pots, going to the plant greenhouse to plan and purchase the plants that would work for this creation. It was a little tricky getting the pots to stay "tipped over" while I planted them, but Elissa stopped by to offer an extra set of hands.
I am sure that there are those of you that know the joy of having your hands in soil and watching as your labor grows and blooms.
