The Little Tree That Could

Here's the story of our avocado tree that will be officially adopted by our neighborhood elementary school this Arbor Day...
I especially like the fact that I grew it from the seed of an avocado I ate 2-3 years ago.  It was an exceptionally delicious avocado, so I decided to see what would happen if I planted it.  Well... it grew!  And then I realized it would probably be way too big for our backyard, and undoubtedly happier in another place.  Then I thought, Where could any living thing be happier than surrounded by children's voices and loving hands?

So, I'm thrilled that the 'little seed that could' will be part of the celebrations at Flora Vista Elementary's Arbor Day program.
