Unique

Wow, it has almost been a month since my last post! I think Facebook was a distraction to me... perhaps that should be avoided by me.

Anyhow, I continue to learn from my garden. This photo tells a lot. How can one pepper grow so big and another one grow so small?! They started as seeds from the same packet, were planted in the same soil, were watered and cared for the same, had the same sun shining down on them, but... turned out very different.

So I can't help but relate this to children from the same family(parents). Even though they have many similarities, they end up being quite unique. They are raised in the same environment, have the same basic family rules and values, are loved and nurtured the same, but... they turn out very different. I love the uniqueness of all my children! It's makes them very special.
