I'm impressed you can get stuff to grow, even here, in February. I tried to plant in early March last year and stuff really didn't want to sprout. I thought it was because the days weren't long enough yet, but it was also probably because the ground was too cold. Anyway, this has me excited for another garden season!
I am wife to a wonderful man, and mother to four rambunctious blessings: seven year old Lily, five year old Luke, two year old Esther, and baby Mark (names have been change to protect the innocent) My greatest desire in life is to be a faithful daughter to my Father in Heaven, and to do His work in my home and in the world. I am a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.
“I don’t want to drive up to the pearly gates in a shiny sports car, wearing beautifully, tailored clothes, my hair expertly coiffed, and with long, perfectly manicured fingernails. I want to drive up in a station wagon that has mud on the wheels from taking kids to scout camp. I want to be there with grass stains on my shoes from mowing Sister Schenk’s lawn. I want to be there with a smudge of peanut butter on my shirt from making sandwiches for a sick neighbor’s children. I want to be there with a little dirt under my fingernails from helping to weed someone’s garden. I want to be there with children’s sticky kisses on my cheeks and the tears of a friend on my shoulder. I want the Lord to know I was really here and that I really lived.” Marjorie Pay Hinckley

I'm so jealous! We have a couple feet of snow on the ground.
I think I should start an indoor garden. I just have to figure out how to keep Johnny out of it...
BTW, I passed on a blog award to you Tuesday. You can pass it on or just leave it, as you wish :)
Here are the details:

Thanks for the reminder. I need to find my latest sunset and see what I'm supposed to be doing this month.
You started so early. Congratulations!
Tomatoes in February? I'm so jealous! I'm AT LEAST 6 months away from that. :( Enjoy them for me.
By the way, that wierd punctuation deal-y was supposed to be a :(. *snicker*
Wow! It must be really warm where you are to be getting produce so early in the year! Sounds wonderful!
