Helping Hands

Yesterday, the sun peaked out for the first time in three long, wet weeks. This was perfect timing as yesterday also marked the first Saturday in basically a year that Ron didn't have homework to do...making him available to help with yard work. Hallelujah! So, as a family, we set out to plant many a veggie starts in our four garden boxes. Lia was happy as a clam to be back outside again where she ran around for hours, assisting with various chores. The most precious activity had to be seeing her cover up earth worms (that we would throw her way) with dirt while wearing her lavender and pink "Dora the Explorer" gardening gloves.
I heart my daughter.
I heart warm, sunny evenings.
I heart homegrown vegetables.
Things are finally starting to look up after a very looooong and trying year!
