Pumpkin plant

About two weeks ago, Miles came home from preschool with a small plastic cup filled with soil. He said their craft that day was planting a pumpkin seed. Being a good Mom, I dutifully put it on the table by the window, inbetween the only other living plants in the house. I didn't actually expect anything to come of it, but I still watered it every time I watered the other two plants. Low and behold, it actually sprouted today! Now let's see if we can keep it alive and actually grow it into a real plant.

Wow MIles - that is great - now you just need to put it in a bigger pot - remeber just like we did this summer when you helped Gramma put flowers from the garden into a flower pot - bet you hae the best pumpkin plant all winter
