Yesterday we picked the first fruit out of our garden.  We have never had a garden before, so it was quite thrilling for us to pick and eat a big, red, juicy strawberry.  

There is something extremely satisfying about watching your hard work pay off.  Does it make the strawberry taste sweeter?  Maybe not, but I can pretend it does.  There is nothing better than watching our daughter's face light up holding the first fruit of our garden.

I'm excited about our gardening adventures.  It is a great opportunity to teach our children about God's creation and that of hard work.  

Psalm 128:2 says, "When you eat the labor of your hands, you shall be happy, and it shall be well with you."
