Gardening with Mommy
May 9th, 2010. (23 months, 1 week old.) by benLast weekend, I got to help Mommy plant some onions in the garden. Mommy makes a hole, and then I put the baby onion in it and cover it up with dirt so it can go to sleep.

Ben is a good helper. His favorite parts are putting the seeds in the ground and getting to water them with the hose. Endless fun is had with the hose and some running water!
The one advantage Ben has in planting seeds is he doesn’t have to reach down very far to put them in the ground. I bet mommy stays cleaner than Ben does when gardening! What is it with hoses and water that children love so much?
Mom was just doing her usual “mom” thing on Mother’s Day, teaching her little boy about the garden and how things grow—such an everyday miracle! And our little boy, Ben, is almost 2 years old now. He used to be a little guy but now he is SO BIG and can do so much! Keep up the good work, mom and dad!
