I've been in my home for almost 5 years now. I've been trying to grow a lawn ever since I moved in, without much success. The ground's too rocky, I have to rake every spring. I plant seed and watch it wash away. The birds all laugh at me from their branches in the trees, pointing with their wings and throwing their heads back to cackle.
I planted a cherry tree and I'm tending to it every day. I still water my grass, or what little of it there is in the desert sun.
Last week, I noticed something strange.
A dadilion!
My very first one! My first house, a big accomplishment, my grass that's growing...and this, my precious little first dadilion!
All mine. So yellow and bright in the grass that's hard growing.
I'm so blessed!
