Zen Garden

Last year one of our alley neighbors hooked us up with her garden grown lettuce.

The other day I thanked her as she was partially responsible for us starting our own garden.

She added that it's her moment of zen,

getting her hands in the dirt,

and enjoying the fruits of labor.

I definitely agree.

A little nurturing every couple days,

really only watering and weeding,

all of a sudden a half hour goes by,

and it's time to go in.

The kids notice how the plants grow and respond to a little attention,

while just being outside.

Good times...
