Oh Laura,
I'm 70, Gardening for 50 years and started a UA-cam channel 5 months ago to help with easy peasy tips on growing. All that said, watching your interaction with Benjamin is wonderful. He is a treasure and you are an excellent Mother💕
I’ll subscribe. I love people who like to garden.
@@emilinebelle7811 thanks for watching and subscribing. I hope you'll check out the early videos as well as recent. I'm truly excited about passing on "old sage" advice to young gardeners. 👩🌾👍💕
I've just subscribed to your channel and looking forward to watching your videos! Big hi from Ireland 😁
@@emilinebelle7811 thank you so much 👩🌾💕👍
@@theirishcailin333 thank you so much 👩🌾💕👍
A seasoned mom who knows how to occupy a bit of time. “You check all the pots to see if you see more.” 🤣😂
Lol! As a mother of 2 myself....I caught that slick move too! 😂😂😂😂❤
LOL Yuuup!!
Yes! 😂🤣
as a mother of twins i used lots of these tricks....need to in order to get things done. i love the respect and kind tone used, i find that important to raise respectful humans.
I need to watch this again as I learned nothing. I was too busy watching Benjamin, just so adorable!!
Good luck with that!!😂😍😍
Yup ! We all did that !
Rewatched and still followed Benjamin the whole time 😂😂
Me too! I loved the dirt in the mouth comment! Lol.
For real...me "wait what did Laura just say"...had to rewind the entire video several times. Love watching your Benjamin. Do you think he favors your mom? Sure looks like it to me, at least at this age.
Seeing you tell Benjamin one minute made me laugh. I would do the same to my oldest and one day he said to me "Mom you have the longest minutes". Thank you for sharing part of your day with us.
🤣😂
My husband says "You say you're going to the garden for 10 minutes and you come back an hour later." So now when I tell my son I'll only be a few minutes he says, "Well you always say that but then you take forever!" 🤣🤣🤣
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Benjamin: “Ta da” = cuteness overload
Quite the showman.
Laura, watching you teach Benjamin is such a joy! It brings back so many happy memories of time spent in my grandparents garden. He may not grow up to be a gardener but he will always remember his mother’s patient lessons.
So cute to see Benjamin big enough to start helping Mom .
It was so sweet when Benjamin said, "Thank you so much!"
When you handed Benjamin the trays while he was in the wagon and he said: “Thank you so much!” So sweet!!!
That one got me, too.
What a sweetie💙. Touched this granny’s heart, too. 🦋
Priceless for sure. Totally captured my heart ♥️
My heart melted!!
He is so sweet! ❤️
Can Benjamin host more often he is such a joy :)
Benjamin is such a quite and adorable kid. Love the happy kid. God bless
Gosh the sweetest little boy and such good parenting in the video. I love this channel
This has to be the sweetest video you have ever posted. He is so adorable and you are so patient with him. What a lucky boy. and we are also lucky that you are so willing to share your life and gardening experience with us all.
Benjamin is such a charm! I can totally relate with my 3 year old...great to incorporate them to gardening!
Okay the "ta-da" with the hand motions and the face. Got me! Heart melting little guy 💜💙
OH MY GOSH!!! I can't even with how adorable Benjamin is!!!! So cute. You are such a good mama!!! You all are so lucky to be on this property and doing all these amazing things together. I love it!!!
Did anyone else "awwwww" out loud at Benjamin's Ta Da? So adorable!
That and I clapped like I was 3. 😂😂 just the cutest.
That "ta da!" Was the highlight of the whole video. So so sweet.
Benjamin's already showing a love of gardening. He is going to be your garden buddy.
Benjamin will be the one with the drills and driving the tractor.
@@eileenchang2173 🌱That's right. I don't think he likes the dirt; though he is very compliant🌱
For sure
Benjamin is just the sweetest boy he is an absolute credit to you both
“Dirty hands, happy heart!” 😃🙌💖
Too bad that's not 'dirty house, happy heart." I'd be blissful. :)
@@malliemargaret2895 😅😅 so true
Me too! ☺
They should put that on some of their merch
I’ve watched almost every video you’ve ever made but this one is one of my favorites! I love seeing you and Benjamin working together! He’s going to be such a great gardener! And I love “when in doubt, use your pants”!
So enjoy Benjamin's helping you. He is a keeper. Thank you for such a positive blog.
We all love seeing Benjamin and feel like they are family.
That Benjamin is just the cutest! 🤗 I loved it when he said "thank you very much", so sweet! 😍
Romancing the ordinary, even the calendar, not written in the calendar but on paper and then pinned on the calendar
WISHING YOU ALL A BEAUTIFUL ST VALENTINE'S!🌻
❤FROM DALLAS TEXAS
OMG his "Ta Da" was priceless.
What a precious photo....he’s a little mommy like ........can you imagine when he’s out showing his little sister how to........Ben needs a puppy😄
I don’t think I’ve ever seen a sweeter boy! He’s always been so gentle and kind. Is he that way by nature? Or do you think it’s a big product of your parenting? ♥️♥️
You are such a fresh breath of air. Meaning you want your kids to enjoy playing in dirt!! So many parents "won't" let there kids play in dirt. and be outside. Benjamin is so sweet and loving. Thanks you both of you. Now I need to rewatch. I was having fun watching Benjamin.
Favorite part...Benjamin laying in the grass, kicking his feet being an adorable kid. 💜
I remember doing such things! Sweet Benjamin stole the show!! Priceless💙
I just adore watching Benjamin in your videos! Ta Da!!!!!!
"Thank you so much!" Are you sure you are not from the South?
Was hoping for this video today! I'm starting my snapdragon for the first time this morning. My trays are 1.5" instead of 2", will I have to transplant? Or is that size enough to get them ready for outside?
What’s not to love...seed planting, Benjamin... ta da! Benjamin just chilling in the sunshine...so cute! Laura, lots of good information, too!🌱🥰
Oh my, how utterly adorable is this video. Yeah, good info, but Benjamin helping, my heart!
So adorable Benjamin 😘 Benjamin you did really a great job! So happy to see you and listen you talking👏👏
Watching Benjamin helping out and seeing his little personality just made me so happy. He is so sweet. Hope everyone has an awesome day! 💜
Benjamin is the cutest and such an Awesome helper!!
So jealous watching Benjamin without his jacket on, stuck in the polar vortex up here in Canada❄🇨🇦
Our temperature here in Manitoba Canada is -46 degrees Celsius, which I think about -50 F. Yikes!! Can’t wait to plant but it’s gonna be a few months yet.
@@rcawson1348OMG I'm freezing in Texas -5 Celsius
@@rcawson1348 oh my! I was complaining about our -20 here in Toronto. Stay warm
Yup, southern Alberta deep freeze right here.🤪
We have snow here on Vancouver Island BC so I imagine all of you back east are laughing at us now! lol
💙💙💙💙Benjamin 🥰💙💙💙💙 With every seed starting video I learn something new! Thank you 😊
I wonder if, years from now, Benjamin will have young memories of his mommy talking to herself out in the garden.
Thanks for the info!! Benjamin is sooo adorable and his “taa dah”” with his hand presentation is soo sweet!! Love his break time lying in the sun!!
Give Benjamin a few years more and he'll be able to do the vlogging himself! 😂🤣 Such an adorable boy! 🥰💯
What a sweet & polite little man you have in Benjamin! This was a joy to watch Laura. Benjamin is such a good listener and helper. And so enthusiastic about seeing the daffodils coming up! Just precious💙
I have learned so much!
Dirty hands -> happy heart ♥️
When in doubt use your pants 👖
Thank you Laura for your wise words! 🤗
My heart just melted when Benjamin said "thank you very much"! 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
Laura I just have to tell you, the more I see the adorable Benjamin the more he looks like his Grandma; your Mom!
I notice that, too.
I was just thinking that!
I spent more time watching Benjamin than listening to your seed planting instructions! He steals the "show" every time you put him in front of the camera.
I think little Benjamin looks just like Laura’s mom. He’s such a gentle child. 💜
I think so also Maggie. Just posted that.
I also thought he looked like Laura’s mom!
He does and he has all her voice inflections! They are so adorable.....these videos make me smile everyday! Thank you!❤️
Hi from South Tx, Benjamin is so cute and polite; your a wonderful Mom spending great gardening time together
Benjamin is SO cute❣️ I’m sure he loves that special one on one time with you! Just curious how are your PW strawberries seeds doing? Thanks for keeping us inspired & growing.
My PW strawberry seeds are still in the freezer.
Yes! "When in doubt use your pants!" Worked just fine with my two!
”I got dirt in my mouth“ LOL!so cute
Haha I cracked up!! Laura “You got dirt in your mouth? Lemme see. I don’t see any...”
Benjamin: I reject your reality “I got dirt in my mouth 🤷”
You are so busy and now a baby. I’m so glad that you got an assistant to help you! (And such acute one too!)
The title alone melts my heart.
Can we please get a plant tour of your greenhouse? It would be fun to see the new growth on the perennials as we come into spring.
Benjamin is so sweet!! Reminds me of my boys when they were that age 💖 Enjoy these precious days!!
Good eye, Benjamin! 👁️🌱 Good ideas, Laura, on how to put that sweet baby Benjamin to work. "Ta Da! " moment was too cute! 🤗
When Benjamin smiles he looks so much like you r mom. He is just the sweetest little man.
Well I'm glad to read I'm not the only one who sees some of Laura's mom in Benjamin.
Benjamin looks so much like his grandma!!☺
I started four different varieties of dahlias a few days ago and they have sprouted, so I’m quite hopeful this will work. Excited to see you trying this method as well.
Oh Benjamin! What a joy!!!!
Benjamin is so adorable, totally melted me with his "Ta Daaa".
Question about grow lights, how do you know how close to put the lights? Can you burn the seedlings with the lights? Thank you for another beautiful video.
Ta da!!!!!!!!!!!! The most precious thing ever!!!!
Can't wait to see your cut garden this season! Question: does Benjamin get courious about the cameras or is it second nature to him by now? Thanks!
Such an adorable helper! TFS!
The face he makes after he touches the cold soil lol And the 'tada' with the game show hands....so cute
Aren't moms the very best at multitasking. I think I learned more about parenting then gardening . Lol. This was one of my most favorite videos to date. So preshis!
Benjamin needs a hat that say's "big helper" that can be worn when helping mom.
Or “Junior gardener” 😊
What a good, patient mom you are!
Soooo.....could you do some videos on seed collecting? I don't know why, but this task really intimidates me. Thanks for all you do.
I would find that helpful as well!
Benjamin doing is Vanna White - Ta Da! So adorable.
Lol, Benjamin is so adorable! My mom nick named me "Dirty Gertie" when I was a child because I was always covered head to toe in dirt lol. Loved playing in the dirt digging, mud pies or just whatever. God made dirt & dirt don't hurt! That's my philosophy lol.
Amen! My daughter has a master’s degree in early childhood development and she would whole heartedly agree. It helps develop the immune system.
I remember all 4 of our kids grew spruces from tiny little starter pods like that; now that they're 35, 30 and 27 (twins) those starters are all beautiful trees in our front and back yard! What better way to teach a child life and healthy growing. We just old enough to not really remember who's tree is who's though. Loved this video! Waiting patiently (not) for about 2 feet of snow to melt here in Indiana.
"Taa-daaa" ❤
He is sooo cute! You are so lucky to have this little assistant.❤❤❤
I loved that part too!
Hi Guys lovely seeing you 2 spending time together. X Benjamin has beautiful eyes takes after you ❤ Mud Pies lol Benjamin is such a great help. X
I used to lay in the grass and watch the clouds. My mom used to say that if you watch the clouds long enough God will give you one that looks like something. So we would lay in the grass for hours watching and making out shapes and just talking and having fun and laughing. Those were the best times with my sister. 💗
Benjamin’s little ta-da ❤️❤️❤️
Oh this video is so heartwarming! Benjamin stole the show and boy are those little fingers helpful with planting seeds. He is a treasure, thank you for sharing him with us!
Have a great day!
Love that little Benjamin! Such a sweet boy!
Your helper is so hardworking. Cuteness overload. I kept smiling and looking at him. Didn’t hear a word you said while he was there. Sorry. Will rewatch. lol
Such a sweet video this morning! I’m a bit envious of your weather! It was -13f here this morning. The older Benjamin gets, the more I see you in him. Such a little sweetheart. I can’t wait to try my hand at starting seeds. You have given me the courage! Just waiting for my grow lights from Gardeners Supply (backordered 😢). Enjoy your beautiful weather!! 😊🌱
Benjamin has mommy's electric blue eyes! Too cute! I always have trouble knowing what to do after my seedlings sprout up, how do we know when to bump them up and/or feed them? Laura do you have a video on stage 2 seedling growth? I always only see the first part!
So excited when I saw you were working with Benjamin So fun.
Benjamin: "Thank you so much"
Me: 🥰 *heart melts*
Direct result of good parenting right there!
I need more videos like this in my life!
Samantha is going to be planting soon too like Benjamin. Benjamin is the cutest ever. I will be doing the same tomorrow 1st time dahlias.
Benjamin’s commentary cracked me up! lol. I’m glad he has an interest in getting his hands dirty and creating plant life. :)
Lol he is so darn cute! ❤️🎈Love this video today. And Russell, what’s up guys...Thanks 😊
OMG Benjamin is the most adorable assistant - ever.
Maybe you already know this but I thought I’d mention it just in case! The love in a puffs put off sooooo many seeds. When the puff turns brown, open it and three new seeds will be inside each puff with their own little heart on the seed itself. It was such a cool discovery last summer.
You're such a great Mom! I am going to use the calendar tip!
Yup the "Ta da" did it for me 😻
Omg, this was literally the sweetest video I've ever watched. It reminded me of my son helping me around the house when he was that age, he's 25 now. ♡
Thanks for sharing so much of Benjamin!!! Truly made my day :)
There goes the little assistant haha so cute! Few more years and Benjamin will also be feeding us knowledge in gardening 💗
What a handsome man our Benjamin is. He put a smile on my face everytime I see him.
Love these videos - my seed starting has improved so much since I started watching your channel. I did wonder, why was there no vermiculite on the Love in a Puff? Does it not react well or is it just not necessary for the seeds that are really buried?
I wondered the same since the reason for the Vermiculite is to retain moisture.
@@mariafolch8067 And to prevent damping off. Some seeds need more light to germinate, that might be why she didn’t put it on the Love in a Puff.
Home Depot has a portable planting tray similar to yours for $10.10 with free shipping. Could not believe they even offered free shipping to my house. I do not live close to a Home Depot. It does have a small tray attach at back where you can keep your tools until ready to use. Have not tried it yet but please with the way it looks. Be using it very soon!
Benjamin’s Streamy award for Best Supporting Son is in the mail.
