It’s been two weeks since the grass was cut. I spent about a month being very careful about cutting the grass once a week and I even planted flowers. The dandelions started blooming and I just couldn’t mow them down mercilessly. The grass keeps on growing, and I know that I *should* take the time to mow the grass.
I walk around the yard and look at the flowers that are getting ready to bloom. We have daisies taking over our yard, and I am delighted. I am conflicted though. I know I should mow the grass. I should cut down the clover and the daisies, but I just don’t want to cut them yet.
When we have our own house, I think I will dig up the whole yard and plant it all in wildflowers. I will have flowers bloom all summer long and I can say it is on purpose. Sounds wonderful to me.
