The Quadruple *P*

We had an adorable young lady come into the shop today. Her name is Meredith, she is five years old (but VERY close to turning six!), and she was on a mission. Tomorrow her class is doing *Show and Tell*, and the teacher assigned them a theme. Whatever they brought to show, needed to be GREEN and begin with the letter P. So little Miss Meredith decided that she wanted to show a plant. I showed her the different varieties, and we chatted about how to take care of various plants. She wanted something that will be pretty easy to take care of, since she will be keeping the plant in her bedroom. And her dad won't be any help, as he has never had a plant in his life. LOL

She decided pretty quickly that one particular plant was the best of the bunch. I asked her what her favorite color was, and without missing a beat she declared PINK! So I popped the plant in a small pink pot for her, and her dad pointed out that that was perfect, as it was a potted plant in a pink pot....so not only did we get one P, we got FOUR! I think she deserves some serious extra credit for that. Do they give extra credit in kindergarten?!?! They should!

Here is the cutie pie posing with her new plant. Take a peek at her socks....they totally made my day!!!
