EW Students!

What is cuter than this?!  I think it is the a perfect photo to kick off “Cathy T’s Photo Friday” where every Friday I will post an inspirational gardening related photo with a very short note:

This photo was taken last weekend, on May 7th, at the East Windsor Community Day.  Held the day before Mother’s Day, I had the fortunate experience of kids visiting my booth from time to time to select plants for their Moms. I have to say, kids are the best listeners and customers!  They would ask for help, listen attentively to every detail about the perennial, and often surprised me with their own gardening experiences.  In fact, one boy told me he grew Dahlia plants last year, and has chickens on his property.  He was so enthusiastic, loved looking over all the plants, and had this huge smile on his face.  As he told me more about his gardening routines, I responded with, “Looks like you will be a nurseryman some day!” Then later as the day’s event activities were coming to a close, this group of young ladies came by with their friend who purchased a plant earlier.  I quickly asked if I could take a group photo of them because they were so cute and just being very girly, laughing, smiling, and having a good time.  As soon as I asked if they would allow me to take a group photo, they jumped at the opportunity to grab a plant of their choice and then with a quick “snap!” – I took this shot!  It makes me smile. I hope it does the same for you too! 🙂
