My Garden is Coming Together

Mama got a good start on my garden today. Dad helped her spread the dirt and she planted a bunch of seeds.


She planted two purple fountain grass plants. Those were always my favorite to chew on! She also put out a St. Francis of Assisi statue. It's going to look pawsome when the seeds start to sprout!

The Prayer of St. Francis
Lord, make me an instrument of your peace,
Where there is hatred, let me sow love;
Where there is injury, pardon;
Where there is doubt, faith;
Where there is despair, hope;
Where there is darkness, light;
Where there is sadness, joy.
O Divine Master,
grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled, as to console;
to be understood, as to understand;
to be loved, as to love.
For it is in giving that we receive.
It is in pardoning that we are pardoned,
and it is in dying that we are born to Eternal Life.

Amen.
