not only has she taken over, but now my stuff has got to go. For the first few days I kept telling her, "that's mommy's" "that's not for maggie", but after 10 times re-stacking books...she won. She is crawling everywhere! and fast! I also have to vacuum and sweep the floor daily if I don't want to fish stuff out of her mouth. Oh Maggie! what will we do with you.

if planted it will grow

Well I started a garden. It's the first time in my life I have planted something. I was so nervous to do this. I googled for probably a good 2 hours about container gardening before buying our plants. I probably asked the stupidest questions to the "plant lady".

While Caden and I were potting our plants he mentioned that some might not turn out or grow, but it's worth trying. I then told him to have a little faith! I had to remind him that "faith is like a little seed. if planted it will grow!"
(I'm also doing this for my young women's project)

We planted tomatoes, green peppers, jalapenos, green onions, radishes and a geranium. It's been so fun to watch them grow. They have really taken off, except the green peppers that is...

and i think Maggie is enjoying the extra time out in the sun as I garden

GOING PRIVATE!

every time i have shown Caden our blog in the last 2 years he has asked me, " is it private yet?" "well, um, no. i want all to see just how adorable miss mags is!", i think. Now i suppose i should stop being naive about psycho's so......today's the day. i guess it's time.
Please leave a comment with your email.
i would love to keep hearing from you! your comments truly make my day!
.
now as my husband always says to his students,
" have the best day of your entire life!"

Even though it was a bit chilly for a picnic in the park last week, we couldn't resist loading maggie and a sandwich in the jeep for a little ride. i'm so lucky to have these two.
