My Yard is Seasonally Challenged

It is Spring and my yard is beginning to bloom all over.

I can't wait for this corner to be in full bloom

It will soon look as pretty as this corner

And I was so excited last Spring to discover this growing in my yard

I had never seen a bleeding heart bush until my mission and I fell in love with them.

Mark does not love them.  He has been known to chop them off and dig them up

But I had saved a few in our last place and I was sad to see them go.

It was a happy day to discover them growing in my new yard.

But what has confused my yard this morning is what was found in the front!

Why would a scarecrow and two Christmas Trees be in the yard in the Spring???

The Scarecrow answer the question for us with his nice note that was tucked in his pocket

It says . . . 

Dear Mark-

I hope you're happy with my new home, I know I sure am!  I've been waiting for someone to notice me for all these months and I can't tell you how pleased I am to know that it was you.  To be honest I've had my eye on you for awhile now too!  Thank you so much for caring enough about me to want a better place for me to live -- that closet was getting really boring.

I know we will be very happy together! 

-- Scarecrow

P.S. I hope you don't mind that I brought my tree friends.  I just can't imagine life without them!

If the real owners (not the kind neighbor who delivered them to our yard) would like them back, please let us know.  We will be happy to return them.  But I can understand why Mr. Scarecrow was tired of the coat closet in the church.
