Orchids

This past year I have acquired four orchids.  So far, I have kept them all living except for one.  I think that one died of root rot, or maybe I just don't have a green thumb.  However, all the rest are going strong.  The most important one that I have was given to me after Grandma Rhoton's funeral.  I keep this one on top of our fridge and it is by far my biggest.  When I went to water it this week I noticed something....

...that's right, a new leaf growing!!!

Can you see it???

I was sooo excited when I saw it!  You really don't see much changes in these plants, except for the flowers falling off, so this was a huge success!  Grandma Rhoton would be proud of me :)
