For the first time in my life, I managed to plant something that grew relatively big! I'm referring to the tall flohurishing black eye bean plant in the centre. One could easily be mistaken to think I'm talking about the smiling girl (Treasure).
With kids, you get to try new things, like growing plants. This is something I would not have done on my own.
We started out throwing the beans on cotton pads and watering them. I wished with all my might that these were magic beans that would grow into one giant... Pop group. OK, lame joke.
The magic was in watching a small bean produce a sprout, a stalk, a plant and now, I can't wait to see what it would turn into.
I also can't wait to see what Treasure would turn into. She used to be a grumpy, whiny baby and toddler. Now, she's a cheerful, easy-going and creative little girl. She still surprises me with her talent in drawing, in coming up with funny jokes and her endearing love for her stuffed toys.
