Austin brought home a cabbage plant in a paper cup last May and said.." Mom we need to plant this in our garden and water it so it will get big" I being a little skeptical said.. " Ok, but don't be sad if your plant doesn't get to big ." So we planted our little plant gave it some water day after day and watched it grow and grow and grow..... and soon we got the biggest cabbage we ever had come out of our garden! Austin was so excited... he laughed and said to me.." See mom I told you it would be big!" We picked the cabbage and used half of it for a salad and gave the other half to a neighbor. Our garden has done great this year we have 
made over 30 pint jars of salsa (made from the many tomatoes and green peppers we grew), ate tons of fresh picked corn, snacked on fresh peas and green beans and still waiting for cantalope to be done, we have 7. Our fruit trees also gave us cherries, peaches and golden del. apples. Hey for being in our home just a little over 2 yrs I'd say we finally figured out the "Green thumb"! It's sad to see the season come to an end... Oh but the things we want to grow come next spring!
