My First Tomato

Today I plucked my first ripe tomato off my tomato vines. It is small and covered with cracks from the wonky growing season it's had, but still, it's mine. I grew it without anything artificial - just water and sunshine. My little one was so excited about it that she wants to pick tomatoes too. I promised her that she could pick the next one that turned red (which may be ready as early as tomorrow). Just had to share that little bit with you. :)

Did Lady Bug get to pick a tomato yet?

She's gotten to pick thirteen "baby tomatoes" as she calls them. I've been getting two or three a day for the last couple of days. In a about a week, she'll be able to pick a few really big tomatoes, because my other plants will be ready.
