Farming

Hope sustains the farmer.

~ Latin Proverb

-----

I am glad there are farmers. If there weren't we would starve. This year we planted a garden, but we are having a hard time distinguishing things - like strawberry plants and weeds.

We also are not too good at harvesting. The other day I encouraged Chris to pick a very large carrot. She ignored me and picked a different carrot. It was about an inch long. She fed it to Elizabeth's rabbit Louie. When I thought Chris wasn't looking, I pulled the very large carrot. It was not a very large carrot. It was three very small carrots. Chris saw and gave me a disdainful look.

Louie was very happy with our errors that day.
