#40 - Challenge Week 2 - Gardening is moving

Lily gazes out the window at her still-sleepy garden, imagining the explosion of green that’s just weeks away. “Soon, everything will be blooming again,” she muses. “Including the weeds.”

Her son Jack looks up from his cereal. “So… does that mean gardening counts as exercise?”

Lily grins. “You’re right! Pulling weeds, digging, planting—it’s practically an outdoor gym.”

Jack smirks. “Great. I’ll be your motivational coach—from the comfort of a lawn chair.”

Lily ruffles his hair. “Nice try. You’re joining me. Do you?”

Jack squints at the garden, then at his cereal. “I don’t know, Mom. That grass looks suspiciously like hard work.”

Lily laughs. “Think of it as a survival skill. You help, or the weeds take over.” Jack sighs. His mom is right!
