Planting Seeds for Life

Today we planted seeds. We planted a bunch of seeds in little peat pots and put them into our indoor greenhouse. The trays with peat are labeled and seeded and ready to sprout life. The kids started a seed journal and we'll record the happenings every 2-3 days, including plant height when they sprout. We also worked with seed spirits and took time to talk to our seeds, asking them if they wanted to be planted today or tomorrow after soaking overnight. Both Ethan and Avery's pumpkin seeds wanted to soak overnight. We sang and blessed out seeds with positive affirmations of happy growth and strong roots and leaves. It was a nice experience to share with them.
