Happy Birthday Jorge

We were looking for an excuse to have friends over today, and decided it was Jorge's birthday party! Jorge is my avocado plant... I started growing him one week after I got in Montreal.
In times when I have difficulty seeing what I should be doing in my life, I know I can be lead and guided by my Heavenly Father...it's just a matter of faith! Except Faith is something no one can see, or measure...until it produces fruit- kind of like a plant that you grow. It takes a lot of time to grow something, and I need to be patient... So I have taken up the habit of planting things to remind me to have faith and patience.
"Then, ..., shall ye reap the rewards of your faith, and your diligience, and patience, and long suffering, waiting for the tree to bring forth fruit unto you" (Alma 32:43)

To everyone else, it is only a house plant...to me, it is a reminder that the blessings are on their way!
