Samuel came home unexpectedly last night. Everything is fine. We all stayed up late, slept late, and had bagels at Orwasher's. A wave of calmness sweeps over me whenever both boys are here.
This afternoon Samuel and Bailey helped me remove the dead flowers from our window boxes. (Full disclosure: Bailey was just there for the photo op.)
This planting lasted from July to mid-November. This is what our building looked like for the past five months...best building on the block.
The window boxes were my idea, and if I knew anything about gardening I'd save the co-op some money and do the plantings myself. But all I know is that buildings look better with flowers. So my participation is limited to pulling out the dead stuff.
BTW...is he a sweet boy or what?
Yes, homes look better with flowers! I am happiest when all my family is here. That happens at best twice a year since my daughter moved to North Carolina but it is so sweet when it does happen.
