9 Steps to a great flower pot

1. Get a super cute assistant.
2. Ready? Let's get started!
3. Add some potting soil to your dirt. Make sure to go through it with your hands and take out any clumps.
4. Then dig some of the dirt out to get it to the right level.
5. Climb into the pot to pack it down.
6. Quickly put your plants in and pack dirt around them while your assistant is busy with other stuff.
7 & 8. Pick up the name tags from the pots.
9. Cry because it's all over. Actually he got up there himself. I turned around and there he was waving the camera in the air. He just started climbing things. He was devistated when I took the camera away.

I need to borrow your assistant he seems like a pro. I think he got some of his love of gardening from Gr Jackson. You need to copy this into book form, it's so so cute!! Thanks!! Love Gr and Gr Jackson

What a cutie. I can't believe he is almost 1! The climbing stage makes me nervous. The other day Greg caught Ryan who had climbed up to the Jetted tub. He also climbs the stairs. Your cute flowers makes me excited for spring - my tulips are starting to poke up.
