The New Office-mate

Ale decided our office-space needed some sprucing up...so she bought us a plant of indeterminate type, and named him Edward (yes, after the Twilight character....). Being quite the crafty soul, she promptly added some decorations for her Edward, including marbles and a name-tag. She then watered him and wondered aloud, "Do you think I'm at the age where my mothering instincts are kicking in?" Yes, Ale, they are. If you can't have kids, you can always have a houseplant. Just be sure to tell the houseplant it can be anything it wants when it grows up.
