Mary, Mary,

quite contrary.How does your garden grow?
Enough about your garden let me tell you where I grow mine.
The Bathroom sink.
My kids broke the stopper in our hall bathroom and we have not fixed it because we have plans to remodel that room anyways. Sure wish we had been quicker..... I can not begin to list the treasures we have found down the drain. The list is too long and boring to recite. So yesterday I am in the bathroom for something and notice greenery popping out of the drain.
I think great, now they are puling apart my plants and stuffing them down this TINY drain.
I reach for the leafs and as I pull I realize they are real and I can hear the root ripping as I pull.

Turns out we were trying to grow jacks bean stock in our sink drain. There were at least three stocks. Why is it I can buy a plant I want, fertilize the ground, plant it in just the right spot for sun, water it lovingly and I get NADA, but my kids throw a few seeds down the bathroom sink drain and wala, we have us a garden.
GO FIGURE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I agree with Onehm, most original stories ever. You need to put together a book of all their stories and then hand them out when they leave home!
