According to an old wives tale...

you should never thank someone for a plant. Sooo....

I would like to take this post to NOT thank my good Aunt Jaye for the tree she sent from North Carolina via Ohio to my backyard. And while I am at it, I'd like to also NOT thank my mom for bringing it with her. (We won't mention the ones that didn't survive the trip.) So far it seems to be thriving. I have watered it everyday as instructed, and God has watered it daily since it was put in the ground. I really think it has grown a couple inches already. I look forward to the day when it is a strong, happy tree in my backyard.

By the way, what kind of tree is it? heehee

Once again, thanks for nothing, Mom and Jaye.
(I love you both!)
