My Rusty Thumb

Many moons ago I had a knack for growing things, or at least that is how I remember it. I decided this year that Noah needed to dig in the dirt for more than just worms so off we went to buy some seeds for our garden. I'm still learning how the seasons work this far north so we started off in a small greenhouse to avoid the frost and then transplanted. Noah didn't care too much about the seed planting, but he's taken an interest in helping to water everyday. The strawberries are all but given over to the bunnies that inhabit our backyard, but I have high hopes for the rest.



This is how it's looking now.







Noah has an exciting new evening activity. Take a look...

And then after we get inside it is time for his favorite computer activity.

Something got into our strawberries too...

strawberries are too bright and pretty and fragrant to keep animals away! I wonder how the farms do it that let you pick your own? Hm.

I really like Noah's last note :) Sometimes I try to sing with Brooklyn but she tells me not to sing. Must be that I can't carry a note like Noah can :)
