Schools Out, Strawberries and Other Random Thoughts

My eldest is currently out of school. Yesterday was his last day of Kindergarten. He asked to go visit Ms Patterson already. He loved his teacher this year.

I’m clamoring for things to do with these munchkins all summer. They’ve got VBS coming up in a week or two. Then I’m thinking I need to get them signed up at some of the Kroc Center day camps. A tiny bit on the expensive side but it will give them a creative outlet and give me some down time. We’ll see if we can swing it.

If the sun would come out more often, it would be helpful. Just sayin’.

Speaking of sun. I love strawberries!

The blooms!

This is the first year growing Strawberries and I’m hooked!

The rest of my patio garden experiment seems to be going pretty well. Just struggling with my Fuschia plants . . . but, from what I understand, thats pretty normal. Aphids took a major loss in life with my diluted Dawn detergent remedy. I was happy to see the little buggers die, truly.

Plus, I’ve spotted these sweet little Ladybugs more and more . . . they will aid in the decimation of the Aphid. Oh yes! 🙂

Anyway, I’m out . . . . gotta go water and stare at my plants . . . Oh, and find something for the tots to do today.
