finally getting around to it and growing towards the sun

this morning was an early one. as the sun gets up earlier and earlier everyday now, so do we--like hens who can't sleep when it's light out we find we are waking before five.

in many ways i have always been an early bird and em and a have always been late risers, sleepy heads, rubbing the sand out of their eyes around 9 or 10.

but five!

so today we got down to some much needed planting!

tomatoes are finally in and sunflowers too!

the few i planted 2 weeks ago to try are already sprouting up and growing like mad.

they have a bend in them. they grow towards the sun.

those smart seedlings!
