Killing The Plant

One of the twins just put to death one of the last remaining flowers I planted this year. He took a plastic boat to it and dug it out. Not for any real reason, except for the all important, "I was just getting a nut..." excuse. Whatever that means.

I guess he thought he was doing my some kind of favor. Or else he got carried away with it. Either reason is, I'm sure, good enough for him.

The boys want to go for a walk on this rainy day. But I'd rather not. I'd rather go crawl back under my comforter and play Sleepytime for the rest of the day. I don't think they'd appreciate that one, though.

I know just how you feel! I found my sweet children and their cousins throwing all the vegetables from my garden off my balcony to see the "pretty colors" when the tomoatoes exploded on the parking lot below! I don't even have anything to say about the experience. How did you react?

I just told him, "Hey - don't hurt my plants..." If that had been in tehe beginning of summer I would have probably had a more emotion-driven reaction, but since the plant was going to freeze soon anyway... I can live.
