Our first batch of lettuce developed its true leaves on Tuesday! It's exciting to watch our garden grow! By Thursday, we had lettuce sprouts all over in our second container, and the spinach sprouts really started showing up on Friday. It's been summer-hot this week, so the plants have been loving the sunshine and the warmth, soaking in the water and the sunshine. 
I'm looking forward to the lettuce getting bigger so the kids will understand what it is that we are growing. Every day they are at school, we check our garden out, and we talk about how it's growing, and who makes it grow.
