I have read so many wonderful blogs that I decided I would also start one. I am very new at this and hope to learn as I go. The name of my blog came from one of my favorite stories. I always pictured a secret garden being hidden away behind a beautiful gate--I am partial to wrought iron gates--and known only to those it belongs to. My life garden is lush and full of both thorns and flowers. My favorite flowers are my 7 children who are all grown now and growing life gardens of their own. Wish me luck on this blog!
