Planting seeds

This will be my last post regarding our garden. Unfortunately, little furry critters have decided that a lot of what we planted is a great midnight snack. Also, it seems I may have taken on a bit much thinking I would be able to spend hours outside weeding a garden with 5 kiddos running around.

I love that God allowed such a beautiful thing to take root even though my "original plan" did not pan out as I had envisioned. My Savior is so gracious and gentle in the way he teaches me the importance of things like planting seeds of kindness even when it seems so challenging to do so. You never know when beautiful flowers may bloom because of a seed you have planted.

I may try a bit of container gardening next year in order to avoid so much upkeep.

Love,
Amy
