Sunflowers

Awhile back, I wrote about Mom's Muffin Day at the elementary school. http://theloveridgelegacy.blogspot.com/search?q=muffin

The Sunflower seeds that Sage and I planted were transplanted into our front yard. The first one bloomed and the second is almost ready. They look so fragile, but hardy enough to last our poor soil. Amazing!

We can't all be photogenic :(

Mom's Muffin Morning

Sage is showing all the recycled milk cartons with seeds planted inside. Made a little window (plastic covering) to chart the growth of the roots.

The elementary school invites the mothers to school for a visit to eat muffins and to be in the classroom for an hour of interaction. It was very well attended (estimated 700 came). Sage's class planted sunflower seeds and painted the pots for them to grow in. Libby's class made clocks.
