March 22nd, Cameron was busy sanding a little rocking chair for Addy, so I started on a project of my own... Our Garden!
I re-fertilized my little garden boxes, loosened the soil, and gave up on my little greenhouse set that nothing had sprouted in.

I first planted my transplanted tomato, then started in on the seeds... I put in bean, eggplant, tomato, onion, pepper, lettuce, cabbage, and spinach seeds! Feeling good, I watered everything and waited for the little seeds to sprout.
After a week, I hadn't see any sprouts... but on my birthday, I headed out to water the strawberries and in the very last garden box I found lettuce, spinach and cabbage sprouted and growing!
 |
| Cabbage |
 |
| Spinach |
 |
| Lettuce |
It was a birthday miracle!!! Soon I searched the other boxes and found little green sprouts in the other boxes!
 |
| Tiny, green onion sprouts that are barely visible |
 |
| The two hopeful tomatoes that popped their leaves up! |
So my hopes for the garden are started. I'll have to update because since I started this post, my little garden has grown a lot! Plus, I have a new hanging pot with snapdragons...
 |
| Cameron doorbell-ditched them for me during lunch on my birthday! :) I love these fun flowers! |
and my front porch is colorfully happy!
Add in a cute Addy 'smelling' the flowers and it can't get much more fun! :)
