The littlest pine tree

Maddy discovered a tiny little pine tree growing in the shade of a bush out front. It's about two inches tall, this pine tree. Larry started watering it, but as the heat gets hotter it seems like the little guy wasn't doing so well in the front.

So Larry got a pot and transplanted the mini pine tree to the backyard. We now have a pine tree growing in a small clay pot in the shade of the hot tub. It's the only place in the yard that doesn't get any direct sun. We have a couple of potted plants in that special spot now.

What's funny is that Larry (I'd say "we", but let's be honest) is going to try to save this tree. But then what? What the heck are we going to do with a pine tree? I suppose we will figure that out when/if the time comes.

And if anyone is interested... the library found The Look Book that I had been searching for. So phew!
