  • Gardening with a 2 Year Old

    .. was an experience today

    I planted out broadies and peas today, and had then help of my 2 year old.

    It started well with the BBQ burger flipper thing surfacing out of a random hidey hole in the shed, and being used to dig (substitue fling here if you like) earth about, just like Mummy... except Mummy was only loosening the soil with her fork

    Then queue said little helper wanting to help Mummy put the broadie seeds in the 'burger flipper thing' width trench (well, it was already dirty, so why not - it was an ideal trench maker ) ....

    ...

    Which resulted in collapsed trenches and thrown broadie seeds

    I'm sure they'll taste all the better for the 'help' I got

    I bet they'll be the best broadies ever

    My 4 and 7 year olds brought me breakfast in bed this morning - it was an 'interesting' selection, with a bite taken out of each item 'just to check it' but it beat room service at the Ritz, any day
    I was feeling part of the scenery
    I walked right out of the machinery
    My heart going boom boom boom
    "Hey" he said "Grab your things
    I've come to take you home."

      Hee hee.. if mine did that, I suspect I'd end up with a bowl of choco hoops without milk and a lump of cheese

        Count yourself lucky! I'd be more likely to end up with chilli flavoured crisps
