Farmers' Market

I wish we could get to the Farmers' Market before it gets so crowded and before the sun is so high. I just can't seem to get it together enough for us to be there before 9:30 or so. Robert needs to be fed, changed, dressed; the dog walked; the dog, cat, and chickens fed, before leaving the house. Since I am not going to wake the baby up any earlier than when he wakes up on his own, well, I guess we'll be fighting the crowds all summer. Sigh. Today I bought our strawberry plants. We've been outside all week, feels like. Yesterday I mowed 5/8 of our yard, moved the chicken coop and cleaned it out, and pounded the stakes for the inner chicken-fence. I don't think I mentioned this yet-- I'm putting in a little, 24" high chicken-wire fence on the inside of the garden beds to keep the chickens out while they're free-ranging. This after noon I finished the other 3/8 of the mowing (can't get it all done at once because it takes longer than how long Robert will sit happily in his stroller) and worked on the fence a little more. I love this time of year but it is exhausting, too. You ever notice how the old-timers you see working in their gardens are always skinny? I think this is why.

"I DO NOT LIKE THE HAT"... he seems to say.

Mara,
A long time ago I found your blog and was a faithful reader while I was going through my own journey of struggling to conceive our second and then miscarriage. It's been a really long time since I found your blog, but I recently was cleaning out an old bookmarks folder and clicked on your name. I just wanted to tell you how delighted I was to see your son's beautiful face shining up at me from the front page! I know having a baby after wanting and trying for so long doesn't erase the pain, but I am so glad to see this source of joy in your life, even though I don't know you at all.
blessings,
Caren in NH
