The "Gifted"

Yesterday, a neighbor who knows that I started a garden stopped me to ask how the garden was growing. I excitedly told her that I have my first tiny tomato! She responded, "Well, MiMi, aren't tomatoes supposed to be big?"

Stunned, I looked at her and said, "Gertrude, isn't everything tiny before it becomes big??" (The name has been changed to protect the "gifted.")

Speaking of tiny, look at the hummingbird's eggs. She dutifully tends to them most of the day. Her partner takes turns guarding the nest when she needs to eat.
