Planting!

I spent most of yesterday working in my garden. I cannot tell you how good it feels to once again be working in the soil. I hate getting my hands dirty, but there is something to be said for digging in the dirt. It makes me feel grounded and filled with a little bit of wonder. When you put a seed in the ground it is like making a wish. It is like believing in the miracle of life. A small, hard, dried up little pellet goes under the soil and with a little magic a tiny seedling bursts forth. Tending the tiny plants is a joy everyone should experience. There is just something about seeing a plant go from a seed to harvest that is amazing.
