feeding the family

sticking to the family related posts tonight.

I don’t know if other fathers go through this but following on from the birth of my son I have a strange urge to garden. It wasn’t there before to any large extent but now the garden is turned over to the production of wholesome food for the family.

What is more exciting is when the first shoots of the plants break through the surface of the soil and you know they’re on their way. So just to share my own amazement at the wonderment of nature here’s the radishes:

and the peas:

I think I should take a bit of a rest now. Been in the garden all day and might have picked up a little heat stroke.
