On Tu B'shvat KDH planted parsley, which we hoped to have at our Pesach seders. Tu Bshvat which is celebrated in the middle of winter, reminds us that spring and rejuvenation will come.
Our parsley plants certainly helped those thoughts. We were out of school for Winter Storm 2014. When we came back we noticed the parsley had begun to grow. What a wonderful feeling of growth in our cold stormy winter.
Today we looked again. All the leaves looked like they were leaning towards the window. "Why is that?" Sholom told us because they were growing toward the sunlight. Experiment time!! We turned the plants around. What would happen? Would they continued growing the way? Would they grow straight up? Or would they move and bend to grow towards the window again?
At the end of the morning, which was only about an hour and a half after we turned the plants, look what we found!!
