RE: SCHOOL OF ROCKS

Paige, fear not, this is a good lesson in how you will deal with your future husband(s). Many a time I came home to the most devastating “masterpieces” created by my husband, only to smile, praise his hard work, and immediately plot the demise of said work piece by piece. Note what I said: piece by piece. To spare your father’s feelings, you will have to switch out the rocks piece by piece with colored rocks–more expensive, I know–but well worth it.

Now I love Will’s splendid solution–love moss on rocks–but you could begin to replace small segments of the bright white rocks with green or gray gravel slowly, slowly. If and when your dad notices, simply sigh and say that the critters in your yard are very busy at night nibbling your rocks and turning them into gray pebbles.

I sure hope your dad is not into hunting.
