“Twiggy. Dad opened the yard. Want to go play?”
“Still pretty hot for me.”
“It isn’t even a hundred. What’s the problem?”
“No problem. I just like to go out when it’s cooler.”
“Well, okay. I’m going out to see what’s what.”
“Okay. I thought you and Mom were going to the plant store.”
“We are. But I have time.”
“This is a big place.”
“Feels good on the back.”
“I wonder if I can run the whole yard.”
“Or maybe lie around in the whole yard.”
Okay, Mom. I’m coming.
“This is a pretty waterfall. Do all plant stores have these?
These smell good. I could see these in our yard.
Okay, this I understand. I’m not one for hoses.
“Well, how did it go?”
“The plant store was interesting, but it is good to be home.
“Yeah. Home is like that.

When I saw that fountain, I thought, “This isn’t my mother’s garden shop.” Of course, the fountain may have seemed especially appealing because of our recent heat. Do the girls get one-on-one time with mom on a regular basis?

Unfortunately, together they are mayhem waiting to happen. They each get time with Mom. Tempeste has been trained to be good in public. Twiggy never got the memo. So Twiggy’s time is usually long walks.
