Sweet Pea

This year our neighbor gave us some pea seeds for fun. She planted some with her grandson who is a bit older than Ethan and she thought Ethan might enjoy it too. They were called Mr. Bigs.

So we planted them and marvelled when they sprouted, when they got taller, when they got curly arms that grab on to each other, when they got flowers, and finally when they got peas!

I was pretty impressed at how often Ethan examined his little garden, and remembered that we should water it.

I showed him how to split the peas and he was actually willing to eat some green food. A great project all around.

Until Kobe dug the pot up the other day...

Ethan: The peas are dyin'. Kobe got them. Sor-ry! (to the plants - CUTE!)
