This has been one of the most fun family adventures. I LOVE watching the kids get excited over their hard work, and I feel kind of proud myself. I've always wanted to do a small garden and it was so easy and fun I shouldn't have waited.

Hurrah for gardening!! With all of your helpers you are fortunate. Remember, if you have more than one seed germinate, to take little scissors and clip off the extra ones. I will be seeing it in person soon.
Also, I did check the book and it stated that you use from 1 to 3 ladles of water per plant, depending on its size.
Cute little garden!! That is so exciting. I am all about raised beds! So much better than weeding all the time.
Gardening with kids is a great way to teach them about plant structures and how they need them to survive...it's also a great way to work math into their daily lives as they can measure the growth of the plant, how many days it took them to sprout! The possibilities are endless!
Oh that just looks so fun! That is awesome, and the kids being excited is just awesome. :) What a fun mom you are!
looks good. I am excited for your trip to Chicago - I love that city. You will have to let me know how it goes.
