May Flowers

Mathew helped me plant annuals in the front yard. He didn't want to dig holes, he just wanted to hold onto the plants until it was time to plop them in the ground.


He also helped me start vegetables from seed. He wanted to horde all the little seed packets like playing cards.


My knee was the perfect bench for him to sit on while we worked.


His little fingers were perfect for poking holes for the seeds.


And of course, watering was his favorite part.

Nathan didn't have much interest in helping me this year. He was far more interested in catching frogs. His hands look so big around this tiny little frog!
