Play-Learn-Grow-Repeat

From Wednesday Mom – Janelle:
Spring has sprung at our house.  Last weekend we rejuvenated our garden and planted vegetables.  Jack loves to help his daddy water them daily and of course play in the dirt.  This year we are growing tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, carrots and a few herbs.  Last year we grew from seed.  This year we aren’t as patient, so hopefully the plants will take off in the next few weeks.  We love to make fresh salsa.

One problem that comes with Spring is the copious amounts of pollen.  Just about everything outside is green/yellow in color.  Jack helped plant flowers in pots, mowed the lawn and cut back a few “weeds.”  I’m pretty sure it was a blade of grass, but nonetheless he was a big helper.  Our yard, porch and deck all look revived, with pretty colors that shine through the pollen.  Hopefully we’ll be able to swing, ride bikes and eat outside without breathing the pollen.

Wherever you live, Spring has officially arrived.  Whether it’s warm, cold or in between, go outside and smell the fresh air.  I am enjoying every minute of it since our Summer here is intolerable.  Welcome Spring!
