Bounty

The sun was shining and a gentle breeze cooled the air. Ari & I went outside for our daily tomato inspection. Some tomatoes were starting to turn red, so we were hoping to finally be able to harvest a tomato or two. Ari looked down at a beautiful plump red tomato and asked me if it was ready. I told him it was, and he picked the first ripe tomato of the season.
He held it up with pride and quickly took it inside to show Mommy & Em.
I sliced the tomato and we all delighted in the succulent summer treat. It was quickly devoured in no time at all, and I have never had so much satisfaction from eating a tomato. Our first gardening adventure is officially a success.
