Every morning Zach and Abby want to help me water the flower pots. Zach goes around very carefully, talking to them and asking them if they're hungry. He takes it all quite seriously! I love it. Abby doesn't really know what she's doing, but hey, if big brother is doing it it must be something good, right? So she happily follows suit, not really getting any water to come out of her watering can, but she thinks she is being very helpful which is all that matters. :)
I find it amusing that Zach likes to use the little pink watering can (it is much easier to maneuver) but that leaves Abby with the big heavy one. She just drags that thing along though and seems to manage! She cracks me up!
Here she is later that day with one of my mom's huge peony flowers. She was loving it and I thought she looked so sweet. But then, I'm kind-of a sucker for pretty flowers and my pretty little girl! :)

So SO cute! You are a good mommy to teach them responsibility and that they are "helping" you by water the flowers. I think I saw some thyme in the top shot with Zack. Am I right? What other yummies do you have growing out there? My garden is very sad this year, very sad indeed. I'll be lucky if my tomatoes survive whatever's eating my basil and peppers. OH, my cucumbers might make it cause they're in a pot on the porch. We shall see!
