FHE

On Sunday in Sunbeams (or as Gem says Sun Beans) they learned that Heavenly Father and Jesus made all the plants and that we should be thankful for them.

So for FHE last night we decided to extend her Sunday lesson. We talked about trees and flowers and how they grow. We talked just a little about fruits and vegetables that grow in gardens. We also decided to go get some seeds so Gem could grow her own flowers. She chose two different types of Morning Glory seeds ( I know they will grow enormous and get all over our yard, but I really like Morning Glory). Daddy chose some cilantro and marigold seeds. I got some peas, carrots, and green bean seeds, which will be planted straight into the garden in April.

Besides the seeds we got some plantable pots and some potting soil. Then we planted our seeds, and watered them. Now we just need to wait for them to grow, and in a few weeks we will transplant them into the yard and get a trellis for the morning glory to grow on. But we still have some anxious days ahead of us. Gem has checked multiple times already today to see if her flowers have started to grow yet.
