It's been a long time since I've written a post and I have to say I really missed it... N's health was a bit of a concern during July and that was enough to turn everything upside down and change priorities. It's funny to realise that since the blog is something I do for myself, it immediately falls off the radar as soon as there's lots to do. I really need to change that, but that's a topic for another post...
Now that the Summer is over, I just wanted to update you on N's little sunflowers. Back in May we planted some sunflower seeds (
see older post) and this is how we got on since then:
|
When the seedlings were big enough we transferred them to a bigger pot.
|
|
N added a little windmill to keep the flowers entertained
N had a bit of help watering the plants
|
|
"Here are my sunflower plants!"- said N
|
We had a few watering sessions once in a while (only these two survived, the one on the left... well that barely qualifies as surviving...) |
|
|
"It's always more fun to water the floor mummy! Things don't always have to make sense ;)"
|
|
"Give me a hug daddy, all this gardening has drained me out!" |
|
And here it is, and I think it looks just beautiful!
|
It was an interesting coincidence that the only plant to blossom into a proper flower was the first one that N planted herself (it was easy to keep track of which one that was because it had
lost a leaf). Maybe little N has been blessed with green fingers. She didn't get them from me, if her daddy is to be believed...
