birth announcement

it's hard for a mother to put into words the joy she feels when she's brought life into the world. Perhaps this photo of Lil Sprout will move you to tears the way Sprout's physical being does to me. (All eight inches of him! He grows so fast!)

Coming soon are photos of Lil Sprout's brother and cousin, who made their joint appearances this morning and are each about 1/4 of an inch tall. We'll see if any other seeds decide to spring into Spring. Who knows? Maybe I'm the Nadya Suleman of sweet pea plants.
