Leo loved spending his free time outdoors. He lived in a cozy house with a large backyard. His companion was a grey cat named Oliver. Oliver enjoyed sleeping under the big oak tree. Last winter, Leo decided to create a magnificent garden. He spent many cold evenings reading books about plants. He drew detailed maps of his dream garden on paper. He planned special sections for delicious vegetables and colourful flowers. Leo ordered organic seeds of tomatoes, carrots, lavender, and sunflowers. He also bought comfortable hemp gloves and a linen apron. He dreamed about harvesting fresh food for his meals. He imagined making rich tomato soup and sweet carrot salad. When spring finally arrived, Leo was ready to work. He cleaned the yard and cleared away old twigs. He prepared the rich black soil with great care. Oliver followed him around, watching every single movement. Leo spent three full days planting his precious seeds. He placed every seed at the exact right depth. He marked each row with neat wooden signs. Everything looked perfectly organized and tidy. Leo watered the soil gently every morning at sunrise. After two weeks, tiny green sprouts appeared in the dirt.
