A Key Difference

Gloria is in Austin right now, and I agreed to water her plants while she was gone (Eli 19.11 was also gone for about half her trip). 

The results have been mixed. 

"Dad, you need to water those plants more," Eli said. "Look at those plants by the driveway." he pointed to a selection of potted plants that had not performed well. 

"It's hotter than usual," I said. "I'm a victim of circumstances."

He laughed. 

"I feel like I may not have been the best strategic choice for this responsibility," I said. "I'm more of a consumer of grown things than a grower of things."
