Now if you know me at all you'd find that I'm not much of a gardener. I've tried...oh, have I tried, but it seems that every time I've tried I've only come up with a bunch of shriveled up plants. They're touchy things those plants and if you are not there to give them the right amount of sunlight, water, and fertilizer at the right time, you could be doomed.I'm going to try again though. And who knows, maybe Noah will have the green thumb in the family. If nothing else, creating our garden and planting together was a blast.
LOL.... except for the part where we were trying to constantly tell each other what to do and how to do it, as if some how we were the "gardening expert" that the other needed to listen to. Man oh man, you would have thought both of us had grown up on a farm, planting and gardening every day. We both seemed to know a lot that day about growing the perfect tomato. It must be the Scandinavian in me and the German in him. Uff...we can butt heads sometimes. :)
There was of course a little bit of snubbing over who was right. It didn't take long for us to realize that neither one of us were experts, that we needed to put our pride aside, and just hope that we end up doing our best. Wow....gardening sounds a lot like raising kids. This may be a good test for us!
So stay tuned. This summer we hope a have a plethora of tomatoes, peppers, beans, cucumbers, watermelon, lettuce, cilantro, basil, dill...I think that's all. Uff-da. I hope we didn't over-do ourselves.
We hope to have enough to share with all of you!!!
It should be an eventful summer!
