BIG milestone!!

Back in February I hit a big milestone. I've managed to keep a plant alive for 2 years!

Background:
I am SO bad at keeping plants alive, that I don't even have a 'thumb.' You hear of green thumbs and black thumbs, I'm no thumbs. I have managed to kill cactus and bamboo. Both VERY durable until left in my care.

So back in Feb of 06, a good friend of ours brought me a housewarming plant. I thought...poor think doesn't stand a chance.

Here we are over 2 years later and said plant is alive and well!! I'm honestly shocked!! I currently have 2 living plants in our house...I think the other is coming up on it's 2 year anniversary and it's doing really well. It still amazes me most days that they are both still living and when I see new little baby leaves, I get really excited!

Next step...Azaleas in the front yard. GULP. We'll see how this goes :o)
