It's Amost Like a Miracle


I started some of the seeds for our garden earlier this week, and while they don't look like much now, these cups of dirt will soon show sprouts like these from last year:


Then comes the part where the soil warms up, I rototill once more, and start planting seeds and seedlings in the soil.


After that, there are a few weeks where I watch the weather forecast carefully for any mention of frost so I can cover my precious tomatoes and check the beans and cucumbers for evidence of that little bit of green popping up.




There will be battles against fungus, cabbage moths, drought, squirrels, and crows, but hopefully I'll be victorious enough to end up with something like this:









It's almost like a miracle that all of this happens, and in just a few short months!
