I did not read your post yet but I know having a 2 year old is rewarding and challenging at the same time. I have two wonderful children and cherish their existence every day. My 10 year old daughter just went running with me and I almost cried. I saw my neighbor and his 2 year old throwing rocks down all the catch basins on the street and it was the cutest thing. I know he can't efficiently run the tiller just yet but keep him at it. At least he can weed but keep him away from the ferts and cides. Best of luck with what is going on.

I think I scared my kids away from pumpkin growing, evertime I ask them if they want to go on ol-Dads pumpkin patch tour behind the house they just look at me and roll their eyes and continue on saying that they are bored and there is nothing to do,LOL!! Little brats,lol
