Watching the Grass Grow...

I am looking for a miracle...some gem stone, rock salt lamp, miracle water that will somehow make a baby in my belly. I am in month 22 of trying to conceive and now I am growing my own grass and I don't mean the kind you smoke (although if I am more relaxed maybe my girls will let my hubby's boys in). I am talking about wheat grass....you just need a shot of it daily and I am growing mine in the kitchen. I am also hoping the wacky cats in this house don't decide to dig it up and "mark" it. Oh how I love cats :p. Another blog for another day!

So below is how it all began....much like where the magic happens - for seeds that is. If only making a baby was this easy...I could germinate and harvest a few in a week.

I've said many times throughout this baby-making process "it seems so easy for everyone else" Lots of friends have had drunken nights in Mexico that led to their bouncing babies nine months later...heck my family members were even teenagers. My mom says "It's because it is easy." UGHHHHHH!!!

Okay...so back to the grass. A few years back I saw the documentary Crazy, Sexy, Cancer and among the many impacts it had on me, one was becoming a (somewhat) vegetarian, I also learned about wheat grass. You can drink it or you can also put it in a place "where the sun don't shine." (I kid you not!) The only place I will be sticking it is in a juicer and into a cup that I will drink.

Some proclaim it as "nature's miracle" so I am testing out the miracle properties. I bought my kit online at http://www.wheatgrasskits.com/
Back to watching the grass grow for now....

How it all began...seeds
