What a wonderful surprise! Your mom is so sweet. She knew this was meant for the Hartley ❤️. the kiddos' laughter and Russell's loving were the topper of today's video.
Oh, you guys! I watch you on my TV, every day you upload. So, I’ve never commented (because you can’t on a TV lol). But I had to break out my phone and let you know what a BLESSING your channel is to me. Today, hearing Samantha giggle, seeing her and Benjamin picnicking…oh my, how delightful. What a great idea growing that grass patch was! Thank you for your channel. I just enjoy you and your family, and of course your gardening, so very much! Your mom is an absolute delight, too, and I just love seeing her, as well as Monica and the garden center. I have learned SO much! I struggled with fungus gnats on my hippeastrum seedlings and never knew about the sand solution! Keep up the great work! I’m a viewer for life! ❤️
Oh Laura! That innocent little giggle brought tears to my eyes. It has been a long time since I heard that sound and I have missed it so much. I am going to save this video and when I need to hear a child’s giggle to lift my spirits I am going to replay this. I don’t think you realize what a beautiful gift you have given your viewers on this day. ❤❤ thank you so so much! May the Lord bless you and your family for all of your days.
The plant stand is perfect for that space, I can see you changing it out seasonally! Your Mom is so sweet! Love seeing the kids play together and Samantha's laugh is contagious!
For top dress/ fungus gnats, Petco/Petsmart has nice black sand that a lot of us in the aquarium planting world like - looks better than dirt in a container too! ☺️
Benjamin and Samantha - cuteness overload😍! Russell tickles me - he enjoys his regular morning time with Laura. When he touched her with his cute little paw, it's like he was gesturing - 'this is my human'❤️
I don't ever comment but I have been watching your channel for about a year and you have inspired and entertained me every day, but today watching Benjamin and Samantha playing together was absolutely the best! Benjamin making Samantha belly laugh is just like my grandchildren who are almost 5 and 1 1/2 . You are such a sweet family and so knowledgeable for us backyard gardeners, thank you for making me smile in this crazy world.
The laugh of a child is the best sound in the world! 💖 What a sweet video today with the kids having a picnic, beautiful plants, and sharing the nice surprise gift from your mom.
Ok so these kids ❤, picnic, laughing bubbles, Hartley, plant stand and even the gorgeous terra cotta pots are just the best! Living my best life vicariously through Laura! 💖
What a Mum!! Love your greenhouse and garden. My whole garden is probably the size of your greenhouse but I still love watching you for inspiration. Loving the series where people show their gardens. Beautiful!
The plant stand is a WONDERFUL choice and Gift from your Mom! It replaces the Christmas tree in the very best way, so you can keep that “shape” year round and change it up whenever you like! LOVE IT!
There’s nothing like a child’s laughter to brighten the day. The sights and smells in the Hartley when those hyacinths bloom! It’s going to be glorious. That plant stand is perfect for that spot and obviously Mom thought so as well. I’ll bet she and Monica had fun planning that surprise. Ending with Russell “making biscuits”. This video was such a warm and fuzzy start to the day. Thank you for sharing it.
Love Samantha’s precious laugh. Brought back such sweet memories of my grandchildren’s laughs. Love your mom too. My favorite videos always include her. Thank you for starting my day with such warmth and care. ❤
Oh my goodness, those giggles from Samantha!♡ So adorable! I can only imagine those same giggles came from Laura as she realized her mom brought her the plant stand she wanted♡ How special. The Hartley looks so warm, cozy, comfortable, and soon the air will be perfumed with the glorious scent of hyacinth. Life is such a beautiful blessing ♡
Who but Laura has a beautiful, emerald green patch of lawn in the middle of winter? Hearing the children laugh was music to my ears. Bubble juice & a wand in a bottle was a great discovery for bringing joy to children.
You know if everyone loved their children, treated them as kindly as you do and paid attention to them as much as you do, the world would be a much better place.
Gorgeous plant stand! I think it suits the space so well, partly because it has an abstract Christmas tree form and fills the space beautifully where your tree stood. Will be wonderful filled with plants top to bottom.
Nothing so Precious as a child’s laugh. It’s so beautiful and comes naturally to them. Picnics are so much fun especially with Bubbles. Love your planter stand. Your mom is a sweetheart
This video was authentically Laura. I have become very fond of her and her family. ( Well, as fond as one can get watching a RUclips channel) Watching the family interact with one another is so heartwarming to see. My favorite part was Samantha's giggles with the bubbles. Hearing a child's laughter can make a sad person turn their day around. It worked for me. Peace be with all who reads this.
What fun to hear your daughter giggle and your son enjoy encouraging here! That is the perfect center piece for the Hartley. It will be so beautiful! Thank you for sharing your life with us!
Here in Oklahoma we've been covered in a sheet of ice for several days, can't even go for a walk; going a little stir crazy; and let me tell you for sure that watching Benjamin and Samantha play with bubbles was just what we needed! Her sweet laugh is contagious and priceless.
Oh how beautiful Laura; the plant stand, brother & sister having fun on the grass, cheeky giggles…and of course Russel’s appearance. Also so lovely to see the blue skies & sunshine, as we’ve had persistent rain here in the UK the last few weeks. You’ve brightened up a very grey day here! X
What a way to start my day. A beautiful, nice surprise from your mom for the Hartley and then precious giggles and laughter from Samantha and Benjamin. This lady had big smiles on her face, and a few tears escaped from her eyes. God blessed you and Aaron with a beautiful family. Monica and mom are pretty darn special also. That's it. I want to be adopted by your family. What an honor it would be to surround myself with all the love your family shows to the people they love.
Don't you love Samatha's belly laugh!! We have five children and eight grandchildren and we never tire of that Belly Laugh!! Thanks for the warm memories!!
What a sweet surprise from your mom! That is just the perfect thing for that spot in the Hartley! And is there anything cuter than those kids? That giggle! What a happy way to start the day!!!💚💚💚
As soon as y’all placed the stand in the center of the Hartley, I imagined you decorating it sort of like a Christmas Tree. It’s the perfect shape! Moms give the greatest gifts!😊❤
Exactly what I was thinking! After a quick look at comments--I don’t see where anyone else mentioned adding some lights to the plant stand. Laura was so in love with the lit tree in the Hartley--let’s see if she lights up this planter. Love seeing the family and kitties! Happy Feb. and V-day everyone!
I’m so happy for you - a lovely family, a gorgeous greenhouse, a generous Mom and just beauty all around you and within too. Such a heartwarming video - loved it!
The dream is coming together! Love the stacks of pots, I felt such a huge sense of completion watching this episode, the lawn in use, the terracotta pots and saucers, even the sand top dress. That plant rack is perfect for that space!
What an awesome video. You, Aaron, kids, cats and plants! Your mom is such a sweet person. That plantstand fits so perfectly it looks like it was made for the Harley. You can never have too much scent from hyacinths!!! Can't wait to see them all in bloom.
Oh my goodness what a blessing your beautiful children are… this baby girl has the most contagious laughter,..Thank you for all you share… your awesome…
I just love everything about this video, the morning surprise from your Mom and Monica, to see the excitement in you in putting it in the Hartley, the family walk, the kids picnic on the grass, Samantha's laugh (just the best), watching them play together (so adorable), then potting up the new plants, filling up the plant stand and seeing all the new growth of your seedlings. Perfection ❤
When I saw the short on Facebook of Samantha giggling, I said, “I know it’s early in 2023 but I’m predicting this to be your best post of the year! So sweet!”
You mom is so cute and kind! What a blessing to have a mom like that! Thanks for sharing a little bit of your sweet relationship with us. It brings joy to see the good God has blessed you with!
Loved this video; awesome surprise give from your mom-so beautiful with the plants. I had a good laugh watching the kiddos on the grass. Love children’s laughter ❤️
Laura and Aaron, what a wonderful world, you guys presently have yourself a little slice of heaven. Seeing the kids play together so well and hearing Samantha's cute little laugh, so fun! I love the new plant stand, It IS perfect for the center. Such a thoughtful and generous Mom and Sister you have I love the way the Hartley is filling up and how you are using it.
What a fun video! Samantha and Benjamin are just adorable. I have these visions of your Mom and Monica trying to sneak…loudly with lots of laughter. 😂. To cover the area under the sink, have you thought about a decorative dog gate? The next time you are in Home Goods, TJ Maxx or Marshalls. They usually have some beautiful wooden ones that look more like decorative screens than dog gates. Just a thought.
Babies laughing - best sound ever! And Russell; love that little guy. Quick note: if you put up a shirred skirt on a tension rod, I would recommend looking at indoor/outdoor fabric and making sure there are two panels that meet in the middle and not one continuous panel. Two panels under the sink will more easily accommodate pulling out hoses and accessing the space. (Sent from a fan who DIDN’T have two panels on her skirted sink…!)
Moms, they are the best! The Hartley is getting full! So beautiful. Russel must have been a very good boy to get to spend time in the Hartley! He is such a sweet kittie. There is a J.M. Barrie quote I love. "When the first baby laughed for the first time, its laugh broke into a thousand pieces, and they all went skipping about, and that was the beginning of fairies.” There must be a million fairies in the greenhouse now!
Samantha's laugh is contagious. So sweet
Nothing happier than a child's giggle.
There is nothing more lyrical than that toddler giggle!!
She looks like her grandmommy‼️❤️🌸
So sweet, takes me back to those precious toddler years 😍
❤
Little one giggles, a surprise from mom, & the love of a kitty … it’s good man ❤❤❤
Russell's a star!
What a wonderful surprise! Your mom is so sweet. She knew this was meant for the Hartley ❤️. the kiddos' laughter and Russell's loving were the topper of today's video.
Could not agree more! The wonderful gift from Mom -perfect size! And Samantha laughter just made me heart swell. ❤

Samantha and Benjamin laughing was just the best!!! The plant stand is perfect for the center of the Hartley!
Baby laughs! It's so endearing to see them play together. It's evident how much they love each other.
For top dress/ fungus gnats, Petco/Petsmart has nice black sand that a lot of us in the aquarium planting world like - looks better than dirt in a container too! ☺️
Oh, good to know!!!
I use that too, very attractive!
Thank you for this!
Thank you!!! I just posted this question!
I dealt with fungus gnats a few years ago and the aid e given to me was that “the finer the sand the better”.
Benjamin and Samantha - cuteness overload😍! Russell tickles me - he enjoys his regular morning time with Laura. When he touched her with his cute little paw, it's like he was gesturing - 'this is my human'❤️

Nothing better than a lil one’s laughter. Bubbles, so simple but brought her pure joy ❤
Your Mom has a heart of gold. So beautiful and kind 👏💗
Samantha's laughter was the tonic I needed on this cold winter day! I'm 70 and I still love bubbles!
Those babies don't even realize yet, the magical life they are living. So sweet, those little giggles. Love the plant stand.
I would not “worry” about the appearance of under your sink/counter one bit…its all so beautiful it works well together.
The laugh of a child is the best sound in the world! 💖 What a sweet video today with the kids having a picnic, beautiful plants, and sharing the nice surprise gift from your mom.
There is NOTHING sweeter than a baby’s laugh! The kids are adorable. Love the plant stand!

When I watched your video yesterday, 1/31, I said to myself, her mom will give her that plant stand 😂 ♥️
Love the sound of Samantha’s laughter. Lovely gift from your mum
Your mom is so sweet, thanks mom for brightening Laura’s day 😊

Samantha’s giggles are absolutely the best what a little cutie pie and her pigtails are to die for😂
Your children laughingand playing together was just sunshine in a bottle. What beautiful memories you're making.😊
Who but Laura has a beautiful, emerald green patch of lawn in the middle of winter? Hearing the children laugh was music to my ears. Bubble juice & a wand in a bottle was a great discovery for bringing joy to children.

Gorgeous plant stand! I think it suits the space so well, partly because it has an abstract Christmas tree form and fills the space beautifully where your tree stood. Will be wonderful filled with plants top to bottom.
In my view the greatest sound on earth is that of a kids laughing.

Just delightful to watch Benjamin entertain his baby sister. The Hartley looks like home now.
Thanks Laura and Aaron sharing this precious family time. Your children are growing up to be such nice people
Nothing better then the sound of children’s laughter! So sweet.
Me again suggesting a Victorian flat fire screen for the Hartley to stand in front of the sink. Would go beautifully with your new stand!
That cute laughter exchange between siblings is just adorable.
The PERFECT addition to the Hartley 💚💚💚💚
The dream is coming together! Love the stacks of pots, I felt such a huge sense of completion watching this episode, the lawn in use, the terracotta pots and saucers, even the sand top dress.
That plant rack is perfect for that space!
Nothing better than the pure joy of a child's laughter.
Oh my word. I am not very maternal but holy cow did Samantha's giggles melt my heart haha. I loved the picnic idea so sweet!

Just adore Russell. He is so affectionate and wants to be in the video with you. Cant get enough of Russell. Xx
Samantha’s coordination in dipping the wand and blowing the bubbles is super impressive!
Such a lovely plant stand. I'd be tempted to line it and turn it into a huge tiered planter
Oh my! I absolutely love the plant stand🥰😍
Great gift! Your mom is sweet!!! And your childs laughter was infectious!!
Oh how precious you just made my day a picnic in the winter❣️ so many precious memories!
So sweet of your mom! You should consider a walk about weekly day with your mom. Alternating days between both homes 🌸
The plant stand is soo pretty! Love Samantha's laugh!
The kids are getting more precious by the day
What a fun video! Samantha and Benjamin are just adorable. I have these visions of your Mom and Monica trying to sneak…loudly with lots of laughter. 😂. To cover the area under the sink, have you thought about a decorative dog gate? The next time you are in Home Goods, TJ Maxx or Marshalls. They usually have some beautiful wooden ones that look more like decorative screens than dog gates. Just a thought.
I had to laugh. Those girls thought they could “sneak” in and outta there with a loud truck!!!l stealth mode🤣🤣😂
@@laraemitchell9064 I know! And you know they were just giggling and loudly shushing each other trying to be quiet. 😂😂😂
Samantha and Benjamin are SO FREAKING CUTE!
Samantha sounds like Thumper from Bambi. ❤
Babies laughing - best sound ever! And Russell; love that little guy.
Quick note: if you put up a shirred skirt on a tension rod, I would recommend looking at indoor/outdoor fabric and making sure there are two panels that meet in the middle and not one continuous panel. Two panels under the sink will more easily accommodate pulling out hoses and accessing the space. (Sent from a fan who DIDN’T have two panels on her skirted sink…!)
Such heavenly laughter❣️. Sibling Love is the best❣️. Thanks for sharing - can almost feel the heat! Cold here in Mn 🥶
I’m really impressed with your comment, if you don’t mind friendship please were are you from?

Flowers in 32 degree weather....your husband loves you. My husband would tell me to give it a rest.😂
Lol
Big brother is so hilarious! ❤ Babies' laughing is the best sound in the world!
Even when he was teasing the cat and hitting it with that pole? 🤭😸
