We hope to keep all of our cross-provincial friends, and those abroad, updated with this blog. And maybe even hear from some who are long lost friends.

goodbye

Today we said goodbye to our very big fig tree. Tim and I bought this tree when it was about 4 inches tall and it had about that many leaves. It's traveled with us to many houses and places. But as you can see it's just getting too big. It's now about 7 1/2 feet tall and about 5 feet wide. So I finally found a friend who just loves it and said she has the perfect spot for it in her family room. I'm so pleased it's going to someone who will love it and care for it. Nadia was quite sad to hear it was leaving, but I told her that after we move we'll get a new little one and it can be Mommy and her tree. And we can water it and wash it together. She's pretty pumped about it. Which makes the whole thing easier. Good bye old friend.

Goodbye fig tree. Your beauty shall shine on in someone else's house.

That really is an amazing tree! I remember the little twiggy thing, you did a great job in taking care of it!
