Let's Grow!

 

I couldn't be more excited about all of the signs of Spring popping up everywhere we look. I can't wait to move some of our indoor activities outside. One of our first projects will be to transplant a lima bean plant that Jack has nurtured through the fall and winter. He waters it carefully each day with his spray bottle.

We love spray bottles! Jack just thinks they're fun. I know they're a GREAT tool for hand strengthening. We put some water in and use them to clean the dining room table, "wash" windows, freshen-up the chalkboard, or squirt the walls of the bathtub. But once spring comes, we'll start spraying outdoors to water the garden, wash the house, or make sidewalk chalk disappear.

I leave a bottle on the front porch and one in the backyard for handy spritzing whenever the urge strikes. And then there are the hottest of summer days, when you can't resist spraying yourself or your buddies!

Ahhh... but I'm getting ahead of myself. For right now, I'm just happy the ground is starting to thaw.
