Garden Therapy

As some of you already know, Amber and Josh have a gigantic backyard and are going to be planting a huge garden. We stopped over on Sunday for an impromtu visit/drop off stuff visit. Jakob was so excited to dig in the dirt, as was Mark (mostly for the Vodka Tonic that Amber so graciously provided him while he was shoveling). Jakob has never been one to like the dirt or even one to want to pick up bugs or anything wet/slimy etc. Well, that went out the window on Sunday, he was finding worms left and right (I have never seen such big worms before, he actually had to coax me to touch them). He literally sat, fell, touched, and dug in the dirt for a couple hours - unbelievable! He really wants to go back to dig! He has requested that we grow snap peas - so we'll be bringing those seeds over to plant and take care of thru the summer. So fun and so nice to be able to be a part of a kind of community/friend garden!

Here is the garden plot from above, the blue spot is Jakob!
