They would love to be in pots on your kitchen window sill over the winter and go back outside come Spring! In the Spring you can cut them back and put the cuttings in dirt to easily root them and you can increase them every year. I started with 6 and now have 40 pots of geraniums! Enjoy!

I love simple birthday...What a delightful birthday! I love simple birthdays, where it's good ole-fashioned fun and not the over-the-top birthdays, where people are trying to continually "top" the years prior birthday. Makes me think of the Berenstain Bears book I read to my youngest the other day "Too Much Birthday"!<br /><br />I loved my simple birthdays as a child, having mostly family there. Lunch was something simple like hot dogs and fresh veggies from the garden. We always played the "dress up game", where we had to quickly dress from head to toe in my grandfather's clothing. It was so much fun because we all looked so funny!<br /><br />We played simple games and often would swim the majority of the time, since that was one of my favorite things to do. While I always got a nice cake, I don't remember a lot being spent on goody bags or gifts for the guests. It sure was simple, yet so very special!<br /><br />Since my children were little, we've always had simple and special birthdays too! At the last birthday party we had, one of the favorite games was musical chairs. We played it so many times because the kids could not get enough of it, they thought it was so fun!! We also played the cookie game, where you take small cookies (bought at Dollar Tree) and put them on your nose and then try to get them in your mouth. That was a lot of fun! As well as playing a basketball game, where we draw lines with chalk as "levels" you're trying to reach. The boys love that game and the girls too!<br /><br />Well now that I have written a novel, I hope I have shared some tips others can use. May you have a wonderful day!

Simply pleasures and celebrations are the happiest. You sound like an "involved" grandmother, giving opportunity and direction to the little ones as you go about your day.<br /><br />My geraniums are being eaten by something (hidden under their leave I expect). Meanwhile they are well-guarded from my pruning by large spiders. So I won't touch them. The marigolds, however, are bushes now. I've clipped and brought some inside.

I am hoping that we can Winter them inside this year then when the weather permits put them back outside for another Summer. Shall see. I, too am a terrible gardener. My middle name is Fern. I should have a green thumb, but don't. However , I LOVE flowers. God's nature is to be admired.<br /><br />Sweet baby you have there. Grand babies are precious. <br />All the best,<br />dDeannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08019741103496608961noreply@blogger.com
