Johnessa Appleseed

In that matter-of-fact voice that only a 4 year old can have, Quinn informed me yesterday while driving in the car and eating an apple, "Mommy, it would just be much easier if we used the seeds out of this apple and grew our own apple tree in the backyard. That way I can just go outside whenever I want and pick an apple to eat. (slight pause) You may have to help me pick the high ones."

So our weekend activity had been planned...apple seed planting. And just as all good plans come together, Greyson brought home from his monthly build-it-yourself workshop at Home Depot a flower planter (and a second kit for Quinn to build her own). Fate I tell you!!

So this morning we hammered...

And ate... (lest Quinn get all the apples)

And planted...

And watered...

I can already taste those apples!
