Spring is here...

and I hope its here to stay! Rylee had been asking to plant seeds for at least two weeks. She was watching TV and saw them plant seeds, water them, and flowers grew. Well on TV, they made it seem that it all happens within minutes....so I explained to her that we can buy seeds and plant them, but it takes a VERY long time to actually have pretty FLOWERS. Or, we can buy pretty FLOWERS and plant them and water them. She liked that idea! Thank Goodness. I can only imagine how long it would have seemed for those flowers to bloom.
It turned out to be a fun and perfect day. We have three large planters in our backyard that have been empty since last fall. First we went to the store and I let Rylee help decide which flowers she wanted. Rylee had so much fun digging the holes for mommy to sit the flowers in and then burrying them back up. She was such a BIG helper. Her FAVORITE part was watering them at the end.
