My name is Mary White. I have five children, so our house is always noisy. Luckily, I love gardening and my garden helps me relax. 

For a long time, I guarded the garden of peace and quiet. When the children followed me into the garden, I would expect them to be out of sight (视野). And I would hand out tasks. 

"Here: you water the tomatoes, you dig the hole, and …" Soon they would be tired, and they would leave me to myself.

But during a recent spring, while I was working in the garden, my 13-year-old son, Josiah noticed me. He picked up a tool and began helping. Working as a team, we finished the job soon. I appreciated Josiah and kissed him, realizing that I'd enjoyed working with him.

One day, when I was picking the peas (豌豆) and having a taste alone, Abby saw me and ran over. I put several peas into her mouth. She just loved how tasty they were. 

"Mum, I want the others to try them too. "

Suddenly, I realized I had been wrong for long. I'd tried to keep the happiness of gardening to myself, and here was a child who couldn't wait to share with others. "Sure, dear, let's pick some. We'll make a wonderful meal. "

From then on, I enjoyed all of the garden's beauties with the children. We brought the vegetables back home, preparing and cooking together, because we knew that everything was better when shared.
