I miss you all terribly. I wish I had lots of money and could fly out to see you at least once a month. Alas my children insist on being fed and diapers must be bought so in Virginia I remain. One (possibly the only) great thing about being in Virginia is that I was able to plant my VERY FIRST GARDEN!! Oh boy I was so excited. And then I was slightly nervous because I had no idea what I was doing. Mom insisted it wasn't hard. I still don't know that I spaced everything correctly, but it is growing. It is so fun to see the progress. Here is the picture of the day it was planted...
can't you just see the potential?
Here we are a couple weeks later....
And these pictures were taken today!
