Before we even start talking about plants and gardens and playing in the dirt let me start by saying I do NOT have a green thumb. I’ve never been all that great at planting and growing things but as my wife gets more interested in growing plants and trees I can see why so many people enjoy it. It’s fun to watch plants and trees grow.  

But for years Savannah and I would go to the local nursery or often times just the hardware store and pick out a few plants. We would never truly give them the attention or water that they needed to survive. We would be disappointed after seeing the plant die, and then I would complain the next year because often we would just continue that loop of buying and killing plants.
