April 30

I've been gradually replacing the plants in my hydro garden, and yesterday, I moved this happy little guy from my seedling tray to his own slot.

Most of the seedlings I've transferred thus far have been ordered online, but this one began as a seed in my kitchen window. I'm hopeful that he will continue to get bigger and produce some robust kale leaves for us to munch in the months to come.

I've said it before (probably lots of times), but I so enjoy growing plants. And I especially like watching them sprout from seeds. Seeing God's handiwork literally expand and flourish into a plant that can provide nutrition for my family amazes me. 

The world would be a better place if we could all find God in something as tiny and unassuming as a seed; if we could just see the gifts inherent in the smallest of things.
