Rutherford's Flower Garden, Day 4

Over the weekend we helped R plants some seeds. I had a self-watering planter that was just wasting away so R picked out some seeds (cosmos and marigolds) at the nursery and we gave the planter some new soil and R planted the seeds!

He loooved doing it (he's also planted some pumpkin seeds at the Ranch a few weeks earlier) and he was very good at placing the seeds just right into the little holes we dug. We've been lightly watering them every day and we already have sprouts!

Rutherford was excited and the first thing he asked me was if he could pick them. Haha. I told him we have to wait until the flowers grow big and strong and then we could pick them.
