I planted some herb starts.  I think the universe was against me having an herb garden though.  I had them sitting in my room on a table to get good sunlight.  Hayden came up to me the next day and said, "Here mommy!"  as he handed me the labels I had stuck in.


But it didn't really matter that I have never seen most herb plants and I had no idea how to tell them apart after they sprouted.  Because...

Halle pulled them off the table. "Uh-oh! Uh-oh! Uh-oh!" she said.  And then she cried.  She's very sensitive.  I didn't even say anything to her! I just laughed!  Oh, well.  I will start over.

I have LOTS more to say.  And lots of pictures too.  I will be back soon, I swear.

What a sweetheart! So upset over it - I can totally tell. And GOOD mom moment for you - laughing instead of getting upset. I've been so uptight with my kidos lately and I KNOW I need to chill.

Oh no. Those plants never had a chance did they? I did some starts... they even grew really well. But then it got so cold I couldn't transfer them to the garden before they died. :( Sad.

Oh no...ha ha. Kids are seriously attracted to dirt inside or outside. She looks so sad. What a cute girl.

You are brave to do herbs from seed. I always have trouble and just get starts. Good luck with your next batch!

Oh sad. Glad you had a good attitude about it. I started some basil and I'm so excited about it. The package said to transfer it when it grows to 3 inches. Right now it's holding strong at one inch so I'm beginning to loose hope that they'll grow any taller.

I hope your herb garden grows better than that!

I love Halle's face! It makes me laugh and then excited to have a baby.
