The ladder of success

Posted by: erinmlee on: June 25, 2009

Here is Kayla at the top of the elephant bed ladder. (I knew it was too much to hope that she could only climb the bottom rung.) She got here entirely on her own. The picture is taken up close because of course I had to be right there with one arm ready to catch her.

Lettuce rejoice!

Posted by: erinmlee on: June 25, 2009

I thought my pepper plant had died, but apparently it was just in a coma. It’s back, and it’s actually growing a little pepper! Isn’t this the cutest little pepper you’ve ever seen?

And my lettuce is growing…

I have never had any interest whatsoever in gardening before, but so far this has been [...]

Posted by: erinmlee on: June 5, 2009
