As I am sitting here at my desk this afternoon, I take a short break to watch the neighbor mother with her four small grade-school and pre-school, tow-headed children, work in her garden.  Today she is stringing lines for her tomato plants.

The kids are engaged. The oldest two, both girls, are watching and helping.  The younger boy has a small butterfly net, and the toddler, another boy is watching with rapt attention.  It the midst of all this, mom changed the baby’s diaper.  Mom is multi tasking, as usual, and all in stride.

The memories this young mother is creating for her children will last their lifetimes. Good for her.  Good for them.  Good for all of us.
