  1. I had to leave my beloved kalanchoe succulent (a fuzzy plant, Google it) behind when I left my college dorm, to be taken care of remotely. 

     

    However, the memories I had with this beloved plant include…

     

    Digging it up and replanting it into a special container I decorated just for my plant baby.

     

    Talking/singing to my plant because it has feelings.

     

    Feeling calmer as I see it in the sun.

     

    Watering it gave me the motivation to get my day started (yes, while I was drinking my coffee, my plant got nourishment too).

     

    You name it. Mine was “Panda”. I miss my lil plant baby still, but here’s to starting a new garden in my next location!
