Thumb that’s Green

OK so for the first time I’ve successfully started my garden in a starter box. (I did it one other time, but started wayyy to soon and they all died before the ground was frost free).

This time I asked my Facebook Friends for advice. The most useful was from Katie “read the package” as some seeds say to directly sow in the ground (like carrots), others are fine in the starter boxes (like corn). DUH kind of advice, but I totally wouldn’t have thought of it on my own! (I’m so glad I have smart friends) So I read the packages of seeds Sage and I had picked out in late March (out of excitement), there were several we could use. We had picked out some unusual species – I’m so excited to try them.

Of course, the kiddos helped with

Sage: You can’t explain miracles.
Me: sure you can – God makes them happen
Sage: Well yeah but not how the miracle was done you know like the little stuff like how the thing moved or fixed

Thankful Day 2

Today I’m thankful for my husband who tried to cheer a sad baby girl this morning so I could get my son’s lunch packed without an attached assistant.

A day of Thanks

Today I’m thankful for a hubs who can fix just about anything, and the few things he doesn’t know how to fix he either has a friend who can help him, or he researches like mad until he can do it.

This past weekend it felt so good to get outside! It also felt good to get so much done that’s been on my list but weather hasn’t co-operated with allowing me to get them done.

Brie checking out her new to us crabby sandbox

Checked off the list: raking the front and side yard (back yard is started), clean off the slide/play gym for the kiddos, planting garden seeds in the starter kit, put some bulbs in the ground, spread the last bag of rock around the tree in the front yard, de-poopify the sidewalk in the back (our dog stops short of where the grass would be in the winter snow), wash the front window’s exterior, put out the yard ornaments and start planning the new planting bed I want to put in the front yard this year.

AHHH yes check check check – it feels great to get these things all done in one weekend – PROGRESS! But I have to say the best part of the weekend was watching Brie explore
