So I just had to let you all know that my plants, grass included are finally sprouting!!! I'm actually very proud of myself if I have to say so. I'm glad that I finally got something to grow and even more excited that my lawn may finally stop looking like a sad excuse for, well I can't even come up with an analogy that adequately describes the situation.
Tori agreed it was exciting too but then told me I had to go to time out because I wasn't careful. I was watering some of my potted plants and two of the pots I bought are really meant to be inside so they have no hole in the bottom and I got the one a little too full of water so I went to try to pour some of it out and instead ended up pouring half the container into another pot. She responded "Oh no mommy you dumped it!" I told yes that i accidentally dumped it and she responded with, "well you have to be careful or you're going to have to go upstairs mommy." I wasn't sure whether to laugh or be concerned that my daughter was trying to put me in time out.
I decided laugh was the best option. She proceeded to do her now customary "no mom, that's not funny" which just makes me laugh more and then I explain that yes I do have to be more careful and that's why we have to pay attention no matter what we're doing.
At this point she walked away and started riding her bike again. Oh well so much for the afternoon lesson. Regardless, my plants are growing!! and I'm excited!!!
