Things I would love to grow and do in my garden
  1. Flowers! I hardly have any (those I have are beatiful, though!). I need more flowers!
  2. Make a “sand box” for MT to play with his cars and stuff.
  3. Build a low wall or fence to make better flower bed arrangements…..
  4. Paint the wall/fence in a cool and strong color.
  5. Join my friend Beate in search for stones that is suitable for building!
  6. Build flower beds with them.
  7. Finish working in the lower part of my garden. There’s still a lot of branches and stuff that I have to remove. (Everytime when I think about this I get a little bit angry since I was not the one taking down the threes and making the mess…., but there’s notting I can do about that now!)
  8. Painting the bench my father made for me. I’ve finished the first caot but need at least two more.
  9. Enjoy the work and the garden and relax with a book or a fresh cup of coffe - or better, both!
  10. Hang a swing in one of the plum tree for MT to enjoy (and fall asleep on?!)
  11. Trim a lot of the trees and cut off the, what do you call it, the after growth ;)
  12. Pick some flowers (if I ever get this far, I’ve a lot of them…) and bring them in to enjoy.
  13. Make a place to grow my greens, spices and herbs; tomato, carrot, broccoli, onion and on and on; basil, chili, parsley and more.
So I feel like moving right to #13 and #9 right about now; where is the sun???!!! Looking at the list I guess most of this will never be done; but here goes hoping!!!

Yesterday MT got out of bed way early in the morning. Before 6 am he run around in the room, making it impossible for other people to sleep. That might be the reason for the running and noise ;)

So I guessed he would be tired in the evening. But I newer thought I would find him like this…. (sorry have no photos!)

Recently he has learned how to get the swing to move. So now I don’t have to push him on the swingset. But still he needs help toget up there in the first place. He usually goes to sleep between 7 and 8 in the evening, and this was around 5:30 pm. I placed him on the swing and then walked around a bit in the garden, trying to figure out where to start…. (it’s still too wet, so I’ve not mowed the lawn in over two weeks - the gras is way to tall!!) We usually goes in around 6 pm since there is program for children on NRK (a Norwegian chanell). So at around 5:50 pm I started shouting out to him. “Come on”, “Now we’re going in, baby” and so on. I didn’t get any response, not even the usual “NO!”. So I walked over to the swing since I still could see it moving. And there I found him half asleep, barely holding with his so tired arms. He fall asleep the moment I picked him up. He had rocked himself to sleep! :lol: Poor little guy!

And yes, there is a TT in the making ;)
