Thank you for the bug ID information, I look forward to getting out in the garden with the kids and doing some identification. I hope you have some more happy news soon. I didn't realize you had a whole 1/2 acre to look after. That's a fair bit of weeding and work....plus a fabulous amount to play around with garden wise.

It isn't the time of season for me to get to planting my own beauty but I'm excited to. This may sound funny but I like going to nurseries with plants. I go and just browse all the beautiful flowers and plants. I always feel amazed and uplifted. Love you and have a wonderful week!Mrs. Chrissy Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09516870555452352931noreply@blogger.com
