Joy has been wanting to plant her own little garden for some time.
Now that 90-degree weather finally seems to be behind us for the year, we took a family outing to the garden center so Joy could buy some potting soil and seeds. She selected carrot and turnip seeds for her pots (I'm not sure that she's ever actually eaten a turnip, but there's a first time for everything). She also bought a pink chrysanthemum, to add a bit of color to her garden area. It makes me smile every time I walk past it.
This evening we went to Kidspace to attend a birthday party for one of Daniel's classmates. The kids had a great time climbing on the structure . . .
. . . and learning about an animal from one of the docents. At first she told them she had a hippopotamus in her hands (which got a chuckle from the kids), then she revealed that her animal friend was actually a frog.
