Strawberry Shortcake

Sophie is wearing the lovely dress that Dick gave her. She always is initially shy, and therefore needs to be coaxed to remove Dora from the front of her face. Here she is trying to show me the Lady Bug on her dress. Dick just bought me some plants when he was here for his last visit. I just planted the Crepe Myrtle and the Crotons. Next will be the Split leaf Philodendren, when I find the perfect spot. I think I want to place it near the box for the reclaimed water so that the box will be hidden from sight. In the meantime I have started to clear some of the "Jungle" that edges on my property. Emma was helping me, by jumping on the base of the Palm leaves so that I could cut them. I also gave the girls a dollar for each bucket of "coco nuts " they pick up from my yard. It is like an Easter Egg Hunt. Emma is very ambitious and ask every day if more nuts have fallen. I fear that if all the nuts are picked up the little squirrels may have to move to another neighborhood.
