why did i cry over tiny green sprouts in my laundry room?

I wasn’t expecting much when I dropped those tomato seeds into some old trays by the washing machine. It still felt like winter, and I was tired. But this morning? Boom. Little green heads popped up like they’d been planning it for weeks. I swear, nothing lifts my mood faster than that first germination. It’s like the garden whispers, “We’ve got this.” I’ve been tossing lettuce and radish seeds into every bare patch of soil, too—May is messy, but it’s magic. The ducks think the compost pile is their personal buffet, which is chaotic, but kind of perfect. Watching life return, slowly and quietly, makes the whole year feel possible again. #gardeninglife #springvibes #seedstarting #backyardgarden #grow your own
