May 20

My plan all along was to let Isaac and Brady plant some flower seeds, but it's such a calming activity for me that every time I bought soil and starter supplies, I wound up taking on the task by myself. But I, at long last, managed to keep my fingers out of the dirt, and they were able to plant some wildflowers (Brady) and marigolds (Isaac) before bed this evening.

We've never had much outside land to work with, so the two of them know almost nothing about how growing plants from seeds works. Given that gardening was such a big part of my life when I was their age, I feel blessed to (finally) be able to share the experience with them now. (And hopefully they'll enjoy the upkeep process once those flowers sprout and bloom!)
