The Gardener's Soul by Melissa Mannon

The Gardener’s Soul: Nature's Path toward Inner Peace tells the stories of fourteen female gardeners who use their gardens as inspiration for their lives. They each view their gardening as a deeply personal, reverent, and creative experience that ties them closer to the natural world. The stories persuade readers to examine their own relationships with nature in order to encourage a greater appreciation for it. Available through Createspace and Amazon.com

Ten Gifts I Received in the Garden This Week

10. Kids reading in my thoughtfully constructed "fairy princess reading garden"
9. A broken shovel (An excuse to check out some new tools!)
8. A summer sunrise
7. Clouds with a purple underside and glowing pink top
6. Birds Singing
5. A deer crossing my driveway as I returned home (bonus: the deer was nowhere near my vegetable garden.)
4. A frog passing through the yard to show my best friend's little boy
3. Watching my daughter with her butterfly net in hand
2. The first tomatoes and zucchini of the season
1. Time alone to commune with the surroundings
