The past year has brought a lot of changes across the board. Career, personal, family---life moves along and it is up to you how you handle everything. This year I chose to add gardening as a hobby. Way back when we were still experiencing winter, (is it even possible to remember a time when we didn't have 100 degree days?) I planted seeds into tiny little cups with dirt. I watered them, cared for them, and impatiently visited them each morning waiting to see any signs of life... a sprout, anything.
Skip ahead a few months and I am happy to report that today I saw tomatoes growing in my garden for the very first time. The seeds I planted with so much hope and expectation have grown into plants almost as tall as I am, and are now growing tomatoes. I'm excited to see something so positive out of all of the energy I put into creating this garden. Here are a few images of the tomatoes which still have to ripen...
