our little gardener


i thought "the constant gardener" would have been a little to cliche'. although, that is sometimes what it feels like. aubrey ALWAYS wants to be outside. i have heard her father did the same thing at the very same age. matt used to stand at the back door begging to go outside. well, hopefully it just means our very outdoorsy girl won't mind things like hiking, kayaking, spelunking, etc. as she grows up. (i just added spelunking for fun... we have only done that once. i am not sure i would want to do it again. i am not really into being in the dark.... with bats.)

she's aloud to love princesses, pink and ballerinas as long as she never looses that love for the outside.


grammy has taught aubrey how to water the flowers, how to pick the pansies so they don't go to seed, and how to pat the dirt when you plant something. her work has been greatly rewarded with a energetic "FLOWER" from aubrey every time they go outside. as well as aubrey taking little sniffs at all the flowers she sees.
