All through my school years my mom would make my sister and I spend Saturday mornings pulling weeds, raking, planting and watering flowers.  

I hated it.

I wanted to spend my Saturdays – my precious "day off" – watching cartoons or playing outside with friends.  The last thing I wanted to do were chores.  

Fast forward.  Gardening has become a favorite "day off" activity for me.  There's something about digging in the dirt, planting flowers and watching them grow and bloom that is satisfying. 

But, I still hate pulling weeds.  ((smile))

It's ironic that what my mom made me do, I now enjoy.  

I do owe her a load of thanks - and not just for making me do chores.
