Hoe, Hoe, Hoe....
No, I'm not feeling like Santa... well, maybe around the mid-section as I bend and hoe and weed! It's that glorious time of the year where daily we get to watch leaves pushing their way through the ground and wondering how in the world God can create a small seed to produce such a small, tender leaf that is strong enough to push through the hard cracked dirt and rise to reach for the sun and rain. It is just amazing to watch leaves that look so similar grow and produce such a variety of fruits. Only as the plants grow up and mature can you tell some plants from others, and some good seeds from weeds. We weed and prune as needed but still can't determine which ones will produce the most. We just keep on weeding, spraying for bugs, watering when needed, supporting the tender stalks until they can stand on their own, and caring for them until it is time to harvest. To everything there is a season and this week and for the next few weeks in our garden is the season to hoe, hoe, hoe...... In the family, my dh and I must do the same - weed, hoe, water, nurture, tend, train.....Enjoy the spring!
