"In words, like weeds, I'll wrap me o'er,
Like coarsest clothes against the cold"

Monday morning I decided the time had come to plant the garden. It's the middle of June! I found my galoshes and set up Charlotte's kitty tent and Isaiah's tepee outside. They played for a solid hour while I dug rows for corn, squash, cantaloupe, sunflowers, onions, beets, pumpkins, peas, and some flowers. Isaiah helped me plant the pumpkins and then saved a few seeds for himself. Charlotte kept pilfering seed packets from me and stuffing them in her purse.
