The Best Part Of Gardening

What is the best part
of gardening?
Is it the beautiful plants
growing in the yard?
Or my sweet bicycle, Bardot?
Is it the fairy garden?
Or one lone beautiful rose?
Nope!
The best part is having
my own personal gardener
that shows up in work clothes
to water the plants.
Whew- This is hot work...
Anything else to water?
Yep! A few more that the
hose won't reach.
What a good little helper.
MyHero attached the
street number on the post.
Notice anything wrong with it?
Anyone? anyone?
Hmmmm....I think I may
have to hire 
ANOTHER GARDENER
to help me around here.
Let's see....
I am taking applications!
Make sure you show up in
your work clothes.....
Oh- My!
Wait'll MyHero sees this!
I am preparing for the scolding!
My Hero-My Hearos-
Get it? Nevermind......

The photos of your granddaughter watering the flowers brought back memories of a summer when my son was 2 or 3. Mom had planted impatients everywhere that year and we got him a little plastic watering can...those flowers got watered all day long that year and it was the best Mom's flowers have ever looked. :)

He needs to play in the bay, not water plants. You can sit in the shade and drool....

Susie said...

Diana, The first little gardener is the best....that other gardener may be trouble...your garden will become over heated :):)
My b-i-l was turning his hearing aid down around my sister, he won't be doing that again. Smiles,xo,Susie

Hi Diana, I always can get a chuckle when I pay you a visit. You little helper looks like she is having fun. Now your other helper would definitely probably get you in trouble. You can always dream right. It has been really hot and the ac doesn't work at work at the moment. Have a great day. I am off to breakfast with my hubby and then to the doctors. We will see how good he listens to me when we have our chat. Hugs Your Missouri Friend.

I always wear a twirly bow in my hair when I garden. It entrances the nearly naked, handsome, young fellow hired! ;.) ~ Maureen

Gina said...

Looks like your hero & my husband both suffer from "crooked eyes" as I like to call it. lol

Whether you go with gardener #1 or gardener #2, something tells me you will enjoy yourself either way!

Kim @ Savvy Southern Style said...

Hahahahahahahaha. Your gardener is cute. Not sure which one I am talking about. Both of course.

Patty Patterson said...

I like that first little gardener the best. The second one looks like he's got something other than work on his mind. You can't trust those types. That little one - you can trust her!

Tete said...

LOL- I keep telling the guys I want a pool boy, and we don't have a pool. LOL- that looks like a good one there.
Looks like we will have to keeeeeeep watering a bit longer. Up to 100 here on Thursday- today's our last good day for quite some time, so I'm out of here to have some deck time while I can!

Lucille said...

What a naughty girl you are, Diana! But, you always make me laugh and that's a good thing! You have such a way with words. Little SweetCheeks looks adorable. She has such a winning smile!

Debbie said...

Your helper is cute...the new one would do in a pinch.
xxoo

DearHelenHartman said...

My, my your garden is certainly a hot spot (esp if your dream gardener shows up in 'uniform'!). Your grand daughter is a cute patootie just like YOU.

ℳartina @ Northern Nesting said...

Diana you crack me up!!!!

"Cottage By The Sea" said...

That first helper looks pretty adorable but I'd like to borrow that second one if you don't mind. Ah it's great to be back online and reading your blog!

Mark said...

Nana! Seriously, what kind of Grandma are you anyway?
My Goodness!

Sue said...

What a cutie...and your grandaughter is pretty cute too! LOL

Cristina Garay said...

Hahaha Diana!! Your Hero needs new glasses!! and for the helpers!! well they both are great!!

Sweet Tea said...

I'm thinkin' the new garden "boy toy" would definitely be the sweet place in your garden. Sorry Sweet Checks, but someday you'll understand.

Nellie said...

Our best gardeners are the grandchildren!:-) They are sure everything is well-watered.:-)

Ceekay-THINKIN of HOME said...

Does your hubby have the same level my husband has????

Elaine said...

I wish I had someone to tend and water my garden. It is so very dry here.. Not sure about a hunk for the job.. are they good workers?

Ocean Breezes and Country Sneezes said...

Love all the gardens! Love your helper and let me know how you make out with the "new hire." LOL!!!

Red Rose Alley said...

I would love to have SweetCheeks around my yard to help water my roses - they are starting to droop. But if I can't have SweetCheeks, this other gardener comes in a close second. haha

joanne said...

June said...

You make me laugh Diana, and your sweet little garden helper makes me SMILE!

PS...when you're through with her I am in need of a little help!

Debbie-Dabble Blog and A Debbie-Dabble Christmas said...

Send that helper over my way, will you???
LOL!
I adore your bike and your fairy garden. I am gathering some littles to do a small fairy garden of my own as I have been inspired by so many in Blog Land.
I am also looking for a bike too....
LOL!!
Thanks so much for all your visits!I really appreciate them!

Hugs,
Deb

Debbiedoos said...

Whew...now that was a great way to start the day Diana! Your gardens are looking lovely too btw. I did get a little distracted though.

Connie said...

Good morning Diana, Your little helper is lovely, your bike delightful, and your maybe should hire gardener . . . looks pretty dangerous to me. He just might me trouble, with a capital T. LOL
Hope you're having a lovely week, Connie :)

Shopgirl said...

Diana, this is too cute! I suggest you hire another gardener and borrow your grand daughter's work clothes to strut your stuff...
