Watermelons, Ripe For The Picking

Okay, the few seeds that we planted mid June that survived, have bloomed and we figure this is as good as it gets. Surprisingly we got 6 baby watermelons (no we didn't plant baby watermelons, that's just the best a window box could do). My over-ambitious husband when picking out the seeds would we would plant to show Gracie about how things grow, said "what the heck--they could grow!" And he was right...well sort of.
This afternoon we sliced our baby watermelons and had a feast. Well...more like a snack, but I belive that the lesson in how things grow was completed. Gracie watched us plant the seeds, she watched them grow over the past 3 months, and now she has gotten a taste of our success.
It's all in how you look at it. But, what a neat lesson in life.
