I'm so glad you got the poinsetta and the pillows.

And yes we do get it.

And I sure wish I'd kept this article I got in the mail the other day.

It was from my mom's church their newsletter. I can't find it, but
I want to post what I remember. For you.

Its kind of to go along with your poinsetta and the things your doing.

The minister was talking about how a couple of years ago, after they
had delivered all the poinsetta's to shut ins, and everyone took the
ones they wanted. The church was left with 5 really badly welted
ones.

And how he decided he would put them in his office, and try to take care
of them for a while. How he isn't good with plants and stuff. But that
2 of them made it. And that for the 2nd year in a row, he has had red
leaves on these poinsetta's.

And how he can't keep a green plant alive for anything, but for some reason,
these 2 plants keep giving him red leaves and living. He was just tickled
red to tell his story.

Your poinsetta story reminded me of his. I'm hoping your poinsetta, gives
you as much happiness in the next few weeks, as his has the last few years.
And if for some reason your makes it longer, then I'd love to hear how
you are the next to get the red leaves next year.
