Growth

I can not remember what week we are on - or whose theme it was, but I knew exactly what I wanted to take....
First Mariette - with a cute picture of Purrloin - the little kitty that they got about a month ago, who was so very ill when they first got her that she had to spend a couple of nights at the vet...BUT look at her now - growing in size (weight) and cuteness...
She really is beuatiful...

Claire went (Like me) went for the more common growth with her lovely purple flower...

My picture is of Bradley's avo tree which he and my mom grew from a pip, when it was about thirty cm's we planted it in the garden - Brad was about seven at the time - and I fully intended to take an annual photo of Brad and the tree, to show the growth of each of them...Sadly I never did this...and although the tree has never given us any fruit - it now holds the proud title of "tallest" tree in the garden....

I am reminded that there are so many cute little things that our children say and do when they are growing up, that with time and age, we forget and lose it for ever...
I always intended to write the cute things down and I mentioned to a collegue at work the other day that he really should write this cute story down, so that one day he and his wife can look back and remember the cuteness...
His story is of his seven year old daughter, with whom he had been discussing carnivores and herbivores and explaining the difference and telling for example that a lion is a carnivore and a sheep is a herbivore - she thinks about it for a minute and then says "So, Bear Grills is an EVERYVORE....because he eats everything"  -  How cute is that...
Anyway, that is my post on Growth - next we have Roads....
