Mudpies

One good thing stemming from my lack of a green thumb, is the dirt left behind that Luke gets to play with. We've tried all summer to keep these once beautiful plants alive (a mother's day gift from the Master Gardner Mother-in-Law--oops! They really were stunning!). We moved them from sun to shade and back again. Luke is excellent at watering them religiously. If we're being honest, some days said watering constitutes his only bath-he will let me pour it on his head without causing him to throw up.

I haven't given up yet, there is still some color, so they're only "mostly dead", right?

Luke is under the impression that you blow on all flowers, dead or alive. I taught him to blow the dandelion seeds last year, apparently that little lesson stuck with him!


The best part of watering? MUD
Apparently, he's trying to get the dirt off of his feet.Eventually, he got frustrated and the fun was over!
