This is the Garden that God Grew

Yes, we planted the seeds,

and I did water it in the beginning,

but then somewhere in the Christmas chaos,

I completely forgot about it.

When life calmed down,

and I remembered our little garden,

I didn't want to even go look at it,

because I was sure that everything was dead.

To my surprise . . .

the garden looked very nice.

I don't know why Heavenly Father thought that

He should help our little, neglected garden -

sending rain throughout the winter months,

but I thank Him for the abundance.

Our little vegetable boy

has been thoroughly enjoying the fresh veggies.

He has loved eating the little tomatoes,

and the snap peas.

I was surprised the other day though, when he started

picking the lettuce,

taking a bite,

and exclaiming, "Mmmm, yummy!"
