And we’re picking tons of produce…
Rufus and Cleo are still having Adjustment Issues, and Sarah’s schedule has shifted yet again…Next week, I should be back to regular blogging when things will settle a bit more. I miss ‘talking’ with all of you, and can’t wait to get back!

Happily, you have 2 “assistants” !…..
I do, indeed…but we say that Niko is “in training” right now 🙂
What a difference a year makes! There’s a no-nonsense air about your Angel this year. No bonnets for her. There’s a crop to bring in! I hope you’re right and we see more of you in the weeks to come, Marie. You’ve ben missed.
Thanks, John…You’re right, she’s all business this year. It’s keeping up with her cousin that’s making me crazy 😉
You just enjoy the summer (well, as much as you can). What a stunning photo!
Thanks, Tanya…we’re enjoying it. Hard to settle into a routine, though, and that’s difficult for me.
Enjoy the harvesting season Marie. The little helper is growing so quickly!
She’ll be 4 on the 22nd – SUCH a big girl, now! 😀
Hope you’re enjoying the summer Marie, despite the Adjustment Issues. Such a great photo – really captures what summertime and childhood should be all about!
We are enjoying it Sarah – thanks! I was quite literally chasing her around the corner of the house to get that photo…so relieved that ONE of the 10 or so I took came out 🙂
I agree with John…. Angel does have an air of confidence as she troops along with her pail. It’s a great photo!! I have missed your blog, too
Thanks, Mom…she’s quite the little farmer these days. As long as she’s picking something that can be eaten right away, that is 😀
This is such a lovely photograph – one of those moments that you wish you could savour a little longer. It sounds like you’ll have plenty to report once you’ve got the time. We’re all ears !
Thanks, Siobhan…It’s one of my favorite shots for this year. Now, if only I could get my grandson to slow down enough to snap him, too…He’s All Boy, that one!
Love your helper! Yesterday we spread several yards of mulch and both grands helped. My granddaughter drove the John Deere yard tractor with a wagon behind and my grandson drove his power wheels with his wagon behind. They both helped a lot. Chores and helping around the house/garden/farm are a good thing – builds character. 🙂
Totally agree about the chores, Judy…but there won’t be any tractoring for a few more years with these two 😉
Enjoy your harvesting with your great little helpers. 🙂
Thanks, Karen…they’re lots of fun 😀
I too have been struggling to find time to blog and keep up with my favorite blogs this last month or so, look forward to catching up with you again soon!
Even in a “normal” summer, this is a tough time of year…Can’t wait to see your next post!
How she’s grown! Been missing you, too. Hope you also sneak some “me time” into all the other times.
She’ll be 4 in a couple of weeks…growing up so fast! School starts soon, so there’ll be more me-time then. I just wish my daughter’s schedule would settle, so we could have a better routine…But, hey – that’s Retail for ya’…
And what a glorious shot. That light and that hair!. No hurry. Take your time. We know where you are… c
Thanks, C – it was a lucky shot. She was marching apace around to the berry bushes… 🙂
As long as the ‘Adjustment Issues’ are slowly bringing forth, well, ‘adjustment’ 🙂 ? OK: Angel at least obviously has her ‘act’ together’!! God bless all!!!!
The dogs are making me crazy…they’re Good Dogs. Rufus likes all the other dogs he meets when he goes to work with my daughter. Cleo is friendly with the dogs she sees on the trail when she walks…but they Do. Not. Like. Each. Other… Right now, I’m just keeping them separated, and hoping they’ll adjust to each others’ smells. It’s exhausting…
Hmm? What if Rufus did not go to work with your daughter? Stayed at home some days every week: the same as Cleo? P’raps the two sets of brains would talk ‘logic’: better together than nuttin’ ?
He can’t go with her every day, so he’s at home some days. He has to learn about being part of the household – they may be here a while.
Love the boots and bucket. True garden attire! Hang in there! We are with you in spirit. Those kids are very lucky to have you in their lives.
Brenda
Last year, she had a tiny green bucket, but a bigger girl needs a bigger bucket! 😀
Boy do I understand. Take your time…

Thanks, Honey…Glad things are looking better around your place. 🙂
What a great photo Marie, I love it how she seems to love the garden.
Thanks Leanne…it may be one of my favorites from this year. She loves the garden and being outdoors – just as I’d hoped 😀
A wonderful photo, just wonderful – the light, the walk, the boots and bucket….. love it!
Thanks. I think it’s my favorite photo of the year 🙂
