A Day In The Life of Lila Wilkins by Lucy Arlington

I am so lucky. Everything seems to have fallen into place for me. My life in Inspiration Valley is idyllic. I live in a pretty yellow house with periwinkle shutters. My gardens are coming along beautifully, and I love nothing more than getting dirt under my nails...
