You might have read The kids and their tomato plants... A photo essay last month.  And Stephy and her first tomato... A photo essay last week.  They have been watering and checking on their tomato plants every single day since they planted them The kids and their tomato plants... A photo essay.  There has not been a day done by that they haven't checked on their plants in hopes of finding a ripe cherry tomato!  We have let them grow their own tomatoes since Chandler was 1 1/2 years old.  They look forward to it every year.

Checking on the tomatoes...

Looks, it's ripe...

Pluck...

LOOK!!!

Hmmm, how can I steal that from him...

I'll cut it in half and share with my sister...

YUMMY...
