...because gardens need flowers

I went to visit my sister.
She has 5 children....yes friends - FIVE!
Ages range from 14 down to 4.
Can you say handful?
(serious business, they are all very well behaved children...)

Anyway, they have a family garden.
Each child gets to select two different seeds for their rows in the garden.
The mixtures are funny: watermelon and radish; jalapeno and okra, corn and canteloupe (...no, I can't seriously remember all the combos, but they were very unique).
Little #5, she selected flowers.
Sweetness....


What a happy little garden.

If you were wondering...when a watermelon gets a hole in it, you have to put a bandaid on it (...aka tape...) so that the ants won't eat it:

I learn something new every day!

A happy song:
