Queen For a Day Or Longer
Cousins Terri & Nick recently delivered something very cool to our house...a Queen Palm. Now a Queen palm by itself is a nice gift, but there is a story and a meaning behind this one, making it even better.
Back around March, they saved one leaf that grew from their tree. They cultivated and nurtured this one leaf and from this, they grew a plant. For those of you who are like me and aren't that strong at math, that was when our little Princess was conceived. (Going completely off topic, how come talking about sex is often a taboo subject but everyone seems comfortable talking about sex when it leads to a grandchild?) When they delivered it to our house, they told us that since this plant started at the same time as our upcoming addition, they wanted us to have it to commemorate our daughter's birth. How cool!
After lots of thought and discussions, last weekend we finally settled on a location. The Princess' Queen now has a permanent home out in front of our house, for everyone to see.
