The Traveling Teapot and My Little Garden Fairy

For the past ten years I have had my own little Garden Fairy!

Her name is Giavona and she and her Mom and Dad lived with us

when she was just a little newborn Sprite!

She is my Great-Niece.

I call her my Gia Pet and she is a delightful, inquisitive child with a big imagination. 

She loves Dancing, Dressing Up, Eating New Foods,

 and Tea Parties!

 Always willing to help and learn new things,

she loves to read and often will pick up the children's encyclopedias

I keep here for her to discover new ideas to inspire her.

She visited this weekend and picked up a flower

catalog I had recently received and wrote up

sheets of notes about the flowers she admired that she found in the catalog.

So here is her adventure with

 The Traveling Teapot

in The Amherst Rose Tea Room Garden.

When The Traveling Teapot arrived she met The Teapot Watering Can

I introduced Gia to The Traveling Teapot and she immediately

wanted to use her and The Teapot Watering Can

to water the flowers in the garden

which is her favorite thing to do when she visits.

Gia and The Teapot Watering Can

demonstrate the proper form for watering

the Johnny-Jump-Ups

The Traveling Teapot demonstrates her

newly acquired flower watering skills.

Off to water the Petunias, Sweet William, and Trailing Verbena

as The Teapot Watering Can looks on.

Time out for a little dance by the Rose Arbor.

The Martha Washington Geraniums on the Porch

needed a little TLC as well.

Gia had lots of fun and The Traveling Teapot learned another new skill!

New Friends!
