I am smiling as I type this, just remembering the time with two kids as dirty as they get. I loved every bit of that day. I have been dreaming of having a little garden for a while, but we kept putting it off until I finally asked my Papi to gift me a planter box for my birthday. Of course that man does not like to loose any time and he built one within a week of me asking. Can I say I am blessed? YES! He went and bought all the wood and then came early in the morning to put it together. I don’t think I can ever thank him enough. The best present ever! Bella was so excited we were going to have a little garden. A few weeks after my dad built the box, Barry went and got the dirt, very good, organic dirt, I have never touched such soft soil, it’s pretty amazing. The following day we took a family trip to a nursery in Auburn and started planting our little garden. The kiddos did a great job helping 🙂 All in all, we have planted, potatoes, tomatoes, chives, basil, parsley, watermelons, melons, strawberries, corn and carrots. I know it sounds pretty funny for such a small box, but the idea is to have the kiddlets see how things grow and show them all of the different varieties of things. I can’t wait to see how it will grow, so far so good 🙂 Thank you dorogesenkuy Papi for making my dream come true!
