Unconventional gardening techniques

Max and Lily LOVE being outside and "helping" with the gardening. Lily in particular is Daddy's little helper and knows which plants are edible (she loves spinach, mint leaves and cilantro) and you can often find her singing and talking to plants. Max is usually climbing a tree.

Sometimes though they will disappear to the back of the house and this is how I found them the other week. Tim had dug a drainage trench from under the house and they had got their watering cans and were filling it up and playing in the mud. Happy as two little piggies, how could I have stopped them? They were just having such a fantastic time and well, little children and clothes can be washed, right?
