I began working on a small garden this past week. I was worried that I might spend my Spring Break sitting on my rear, accomplishing nothing, and getting bored. So, I decided to try this whole growing vegetables thing. I tilled the soil, bought some bagged manure, and bought a total of 5 small veggie plants. I did most of the work when Alex was gone, but when he got home from day care made sure to show him our new garden. I am very happy to say that he loves the garden. Nothing makes him happier than to plop down in the middle of it and throw some dirt about. Thankfully he has yet to squash any wee plants under foot, yet. In addition to the plants in the ground, today we began to work on some lettuce that will be growing in pots. I am excited to see how that turns out. Really, I am excited to see if any of them actually produce anything. Then the next big challenge will be getting Alex to eat them:)
