After lunch, we went in search of treasures. Joshua likes to search for snail shells (empty ones), and Tabitha searches for rocks.
I could tell they loved having me right there with them. Tabitha kept coming up to me saying, "Mama!" and then she'd wave at me. It was very cute.
We also found a couple of ripe cucumbers on the vines. Cucumbers have to be the easiest vegetable to grow. I just started this past spring growing veggies. I had tomatoes, peppers, and cucumbers. Cucumbers require no work other than planting seeds. They become vines and and have yellow blossoms for the cucumbers. Oh, and they don't require much water. Joshua is trying to pull one off.
We came inside and I peeled it so they could try it. Joshua wanted ranch dressing with it and took a few nibbles before complaining that his tummy hurt. He gets an A for trying it. Tabitha just held the cucumber in one hand and stuck the other in the ranch, licking it off her fingers. I then tried making a drink with it, and Joshua spit it out instantly. At least he's into trying new things. Tabitha never got close to it.
Right now everyone is resting peacefully. Hopefully we burned a lot of energy. I know I had lots of fun.
