Homestead Gratitude #2

 Please overlook the innate grubbiness of boys being boys :)

I love to watch the kids forage in the garden.  Once mid-summer arrives, they just walk and eat their way through the raspberries, mulberries, tomatoes and truly anything they can get their hands on.  It's early in the season and amazingly, one of Charlies favorite things is to nibble on chives.  He will come in the house with major onion breath, but incredibly content.  Gratitude number two, watching the children, and ourselves partake in the properties bounty.  The seasons eatings on the homestead have begun!

    My 8 year old, Joe, loves nibbling on the chives too!
