I thought that I would give you all an update on the strawberries...nothing is happening! Like I mentioned in an earlier message, I don't have the gift to make things grow. Claire and I have taken very good care of the strawberry seeds but alas they didn't grow, as you can see from the picture. The good news is that mother's day was a week and a half ago and my plant from church is still alive! I told Nate that I don't think a person's ability to be a mother is reflected in how long her mother's day flower stays alive! If that were the case I would be in pretty bad shape because mine usually only last a month or so. I 'm going to try really hard to keep this one alive, it's the one on the table next to Claire. On Saturday I planted flowers in my big pots in the front yard and when I told Nate I was going to the store to buy plants he said, "You are buying more flowers to kill?" Ha, ha, ha. I told you I can't grow anything. I have a feeling that my struggling flowers will be the topic of many more messages to come. Stay tuned...

I am a firm believer it about the stuff we put in the soil that will help the plants grow. Totally I'm hooked on "worm poop" to help in my flower gardens. Next place to try is in the garden itself. I'll keep you posted...
... I will work on reading THE HOST too.
So sorry about your strawberries. My mothers day church flowers always die, always! Luckily my garden is doing well, so this makes be believe I can keep things alive.
I am there with you Kayley, I am so not a green thumb person, as most people but it, I am definitely a brown thumb person, everything I ever plant or try to plant or even when pretty plants are given to me I have the hardest time getting anything to grow or to get things to not die, after they are already growing.
i totally understand how you feel....
i kill air plants...but i keep trying and sorry to say everything keeps dieing....good luck....i hope you fair better than i have over the last couple of years...
