My youngest daughter on the other hand is drawn to them as they are to her. I believe my fear came from being attacked by a dog when I was little and just never wanted anything to do with animals after that. With that being said...this year I have noticed more butterflies, bees, cardinals and other birds in my yard than ever before. And the rabbits just love out yard. I counted ten of them one time just chilling out. And we do not seem to bother them one bit. They know they are safe I guess is why they do not run off when we go out in the evenings.<br />I found Wendy's comment to be something that I have experienced as well. See, my family now lives in the home that my husband grew up in. We gutted it from the inside out and redone everthing (but that is another blog topic). However, my father in law loved his yard and had a beautiful rose garden. When he passed on, no one here to tend to it and eventually my mother and I cut through it all and tore them all out. I mean down to the root: however the following year one rose bush came back up and I have left it there ever since. I believe it must have been Bill's favorite one and he just couldn't bear to see it go too. And amazingly enough each year it blooms. It has even bloomed two colors. One year it was pink.<br /><br />Now that I have rambled long enough I will go- hope your staying cool in this horrid humidity.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02531805495100414095noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2795332554006054086.post-55523713105171415472010-07-14T21:38:15.925-04:002010-07-14T21:38:15.925-04:00I would love to learn more about this.

He writes about the spiritual meaning of animals. It is truly an amazing book. I will look for your book as well,as I find this subject fascinating.<br /><br />I think I blogged a long time ago about my mother's hibiscus plant. She looked after it for years and it is a big one. As big as me. When Mom died I took this plant. It bloomed well for me for a few years and then stopped blooming altogether. Last year, there was one bloom - on my mother's birthday. It hasn't bloomed since. Coincidence? I think not.Wendyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14788733654505792266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2795332554006054086.post-72378346822965586572010-07-13T16:05:18.780-04:002010-07-13T16:05:18.780-04:00Most bugs I find inside I gently place outside,exc...Most bugs I find inside I gently place outside,except for flys,mosquitos and ants.<br /> Japanese beetles & aphids that find their way to my flowers,I am not kind to either.<br />Spiders and little four footed critters don't freak me out.<br />My ex co-workers loved me for excorting those things out the door. :0)<br />Never learned the how & why they are here, but know there has to be a good reason. <br />Like food for another of God's creatures & to keep the amount of some bugs down for a few.My name WAS Female, I shit you not!https://www.blogger.com/profile/18261595799137622984noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2795332554006054086.post-58975079603059678472010-07-13T10:23:51.947-04:002010-07-13T10:23:51.947-04:00I'd love to learn all those things...unfortuna...I'd love to learn all those things...unfortunately, my attention span is not long enough...and my memory...I forget, what were we talking about?Judyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14414361079501574872noreply@blogger.com
