Dirt everywhere, tiny hands digging, and not a single straight row in sight. Our backyard isn’t fancy, but my daughter and I are obsessed with our first garden. She picks the seeds, I try to remember which ones we planted where. Sometimes we water the weeds by accident, but hey, they look happy too. We laugh at our crooked carrots and celebrate every sprout like it’s a miracle. I learned fast—let her do the watering, even if it means puddles. Turns out, letting go of perfection makes the whole thing more fun. If you’re starting out, don’t stress about the mess. The best part is watching her face light up when something green pops out of the dirt. That’s the real win. #gardeningwithkids #familyfun #growyourown #parenting #outdooradventures #Gardening
