It is so dry. I need some mud puddles to splash in. And I really need to do some digging, but the ground is so hard. Mom wants to plow up some of the field, but it would be helpful if it would rain first…

We keep weeding, but there is still so much to do. My job is to go around and give everyone kisses while they are down at my level. Mostly I like to surprise them when they aren’t looking so that they squeal with surprise.

The garlic harvest was fun. But I don’t get to eat any garlic or onions. Mom says they aren’t good for dogs and cats. So I don’t get to taste the food she makes with them. It smells so good. It’s not fair!!!
