They both need it! I don't know how all this is going to\u003cbr\u003eend and I wish my mind wasn't in a kind of tingle. However, I'll do the\u003cbr\u003ebest I can and not hold myself at all responsible for myself, and then\u003cbr\u003ewho will there be to blame?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThere are a great many kinds of good-feeling in this world, from radiant\u003cbr\u003ejoy down to perfect bliss, but this spring I have got an attack of just\u003cbr\u003eold-fashioned happiness that looks as if it might become chronic.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eI am so happy that I planted my garden all crooked, my eyes upon the\u003cbr\u003eclouds with the birds sailing against them, and when I became conscious\u003cbr\u003eI found wicked flaunting poppies sprouted right up against the sweet\u003cbr\u003emodest clover-pinks, while the whole paper of bachelor's-buttons was\u003cbr\u003esowed over everything--which I immediately began to dig right up again,\u003cbr\u003eblushing furiously to myself over the trowel, and glad that I had caught\u003cbr\u003emyself before they grew up to laugh in my face. However, I got that\u003cbr\u003elaugh anyway, and I might just as well have left them, for Billy ran to\u003cbr\u003ethe gate and called Doctor John to come in and make Molly stop digging\u003cbr\u003eup his buttons. Billy claims everything in this garden, and he thought\u003cbr\u003ethey would grow up into the kind of buttons you pop out of a gun.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"So you're digging up the bachelor-pops, Mrs. Molly?\" the doctor asked\u003cbr\u003eas he leaned over the gate. I went right on digging without looking up\u003cbr\u003eat him. I couldn't look up because I was blushing still worse. Sometimes\u003cbr\u003eI hate that man, and if he wasn't Billy's father I wouldn't neighbor\u003cbr\u003ewith him as I do. But somebody _has_ to look after Billy.","brand":"SAP","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47145638265072,"sku":"2940013411449","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940013411449_p0.jpg?v=1763581083","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940013411449","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
