Planting Seeds

We have planted our first seeds! We had some miscellaneous packets from last year that we will try out first of all. It includes morning glory, marigolds, cosmos, forget-me-nots, parsley, and thyme.

Iain, the same child who wouldn't touch play dough unless it was with a popsicle stick, requested a popsicle stick when it was time to fill in the dirt. He dutifully carried over about a teaspoon at a time to fill up his pots.

Then it was time for planting the seeds. Both Josephine and Iain really enjoyed looking at all the various shapes, sizes, and colors of seeds as they planted them.

Their favorite step, by far, was watering the newly planted seeds.

The greenhouse is now full, and we must wait for nature to take its course . . .
