Congratulations! A possible few sleepless nights heading your way but that passes quickly and they grow up fast!

congratulations! my 3 year old loves playing in my new greenhouse but I'm still working on the "putting her to work" part.

Careful on the "putting to work" part. Tags are irresistible to toddlers. It is so cute when they hand you a fistful of tags. "Look at what I found!" :roll:

hah you are right! she kept pulling the tags on the tomatoes until I threatened to evict her from the garden! thankfully she cannot reach the plants yet on the GH benches!

Right... i guess ill should start thinking about that...haha

Late to the party once again, but WhooHooo! Congratulations to you and yours... it's a wonderful and humbling stage of life. You'd find strengths and weaknesses you never realized you posses. The years pass more rapidly than you'll realize until it's look back time. Embrace every minute of it.

Ha! Later than WW! Congrats on your new son. Everything that has been said so far is true. Treasure every moment, good and bad. And remember...HE IS WATCHING YOU. Oh, and they grow up and give you grandkids! We have 8.

Thanks everyone! I thought this thread was gonna be about purpuratas but parental encouragment and support is so much more helpful!

This is so wholesome to read! Louis, I'm glad you got some seedlings, and yes - the labiate catts will get anyone in enough time, at least that's my steadfast opinion - they're glorious!

Hey Louis!! How's the boy doing? How about an update now that you're sleeping again?:rofl:
