This is a photo of my tree from a few days ago, back when he had far fewer leaves and was a mere 11 and a a half inches tall. He's up to twelve now at his tippy-top branch! I keep him by this window because it's so bright upstairs (an artist once tried to buy my house simply because of the bright sunlight that this room gets) and because he can look outside at those trees that he'll someday be able to stomp on. It's motivation.
As you can see, I keep a glass of water nearby, and a ruler. This enables me to encourage, and measure, his growth on a regular basis. I wish it were a sunnier day when this photo was taken because this one makes it look like I live in a dark and scary place. I promise, I don't. Mr. Tree has a great home.
