Oh the Garden

 Tonight for FHE we decided to learn about gardens. We read from President Kimball's talk on planting a garden and then we practiced saying the names of the plants we had planted. We also practiced being gentle with the plants and playing only in the dirt. Earlier today Tate decided the plants were as beautiful as flowers and promptly picked one of my tomatoes. It was heart breaking and led to a lesson on caring for the garden. After our lesson we drew pictures with side walk chalk of all of the delicious foods that come from gardens. Tate had about as much chalk on him as the sidewalk did, but it was fun! After cleaning up the chalk Tate went back to examine the garden one more time and snap like a monkey out of a tree another of my tomatoes was out of the ground. I've replanted both and hope to see them blessed and producing some day! What a little bug!

Oh Tate, digging in the garden--I can just see it! That sounds like an awesome FHE idea--I will have to come for you for your plans one day; I am not that creative, but you are! I love it!
