For the love of gardening

For anyone out there who is gardening or wants to garden? I love watching things grow, both flowers (lots of flowers) and vegetables. My mother kept a garden and I never wanted to go out there because I was of the bugs, but now that I am older and more mature, I say, okay bugs move over because I'm planting something. I've had both success and failure, but I keep trying. Lately, I said to myself and my husband, I would love to have some kind of fruit. Wouldn't you know it, my husband pointed out a small piece of grapevine amongst my other plants. God sent a bird to deposit a seed right in my yard! I transplanted the vine against my fence. Oh happy day! I can't wait until I have grapes.
