Another Day in the Community Garden

We attempted to work at our homeschool community garden yesterday.  Here's how it went:  Wonder Kids:  We want snacks..I'm thirsty..Hey, watch me climb the fence...I'm hungry...Can I play with the scarecrow?...How come she gets to play with the sprinkler?...We want to go to the playground...I want her snack.  Mommy:  The weeds are the little green thingies on either side of the veggies...That's lima beans, don't pull it...That's a tomato, don't pull it...She owns the sprinkler, she can play with it...No going to the playground til you've pulled a weed...Eat your crackers...You just had 2 sippee cups of water in 2 minutes, no more for another 2 minutes...Stop climbing the fence...Don't break the fence, we don't have the money to replace the fence...That's corn, don't pull the corn...No, you can't eat the corn you just pulled (Sorry, Oh Great Garden Guru, Savannah Mac)...Do not take the clothes off the scarecrow...Don't take the scarecrow down...Just go play on the playground.

Veggies are a'growing.
