The feeling surged through her, a tingling energy that made her want to dance. The doorbell chimed, and she burst into a run, her heart thumping in her chest.

It was David, her neighbor from across the street, his hands clasped behind his back. "Sarah, can I talk to you for a moment?"

Sarah whooped with delight. "A garden! That is such a wonderful idea! We can make it the most colorful garden ever! We'll plant sunflowers and zinnias, and maybe build a little gnome home. Oh, and you have to help me design the sign! This is going to be so much fun!" She grabbed his arm, already dragging him toward the back yard.
