One of the things we love to do as a family is spend time in our garden. The 4 beds are filled with corn, tomatoes, herbs, and flowers. This is the first year we have planted corn and it now stands taller than Dan. It truly is an amazing sight. We can't wait to BBQ a few ears. Lilly loves to water and pick the flowers. She clutches them tightly in her fist and tells me that she needs a vase. Dan took me to this amazing little nursery in Orange this week, called M&M. They specialize in fairy (and Wizard of Oz, mermaid, gnome, jungle animals...) miniature gardens. We got a lot of ideas, bought some plants, then headed over to Michaels to buy our accessories. The nursery's were very expensive and too gorgeous for a 2 year old. Dan even made the little fence with twigs from the avocado tree and some twine. I would recommend this project to anyone with young children. You don't need a yard, just one decent size pot, some ground cover, small toys and an imagination.
