A Conversation While Gardening

Resha Kate: Here's your shovel, Daddy.

Meyer: Kate, that's not a shovel.
(To Daddy) What's that thing called?

Daddy: A spade.

Meyer: It's a spade, Kate. Not a shovel.

Aside from the obvious problems that arise when small children have access to gardening tools, planting a vegetable garden with the kids was probably the highlight of my weekend. I'm just glad that Meyer and Resha Kate don't realize that I'm an awful gardener.
