I had my Mother’s Day breakfast outside this morning in the potager. My gardening companion was one of my Papillon babies, Sophie. The company was charming and the view was beautiful.
Happy Mother’s Day to all the moms out there.

Oh give me a home
Where the Papillons roam
And the deer and the chickens do play…
Where never was heard
A four-letter word
Though I watch them eat plants all day.
