Hello! Have you enjoyed the cooler weather? Beth got all of her plants in over the weekend. They were already feeling the cold on her front porch – that faces north! But they're all inside. Safe and happy. One of her plants called Mother of Thousands is safe inside. Beth bought it at the craft fair in Atoka a while ago.

Beth's Mother, Ruth Gadberry would have LOVED it! And that's why Beth just had to get it! The plant grows plantlets along the outside of each leaf. Every time she'd look around the back deck, there would be baby plants on the table, the chairs, the floor, everywhere. She'd pick them up and toss them into a couple of pots of dirt. The 2 pots were full of baby plants!

What should she do with them? She took them to church, of course. Anybody who wanted one could come dig it up and take it home in a plastic cup. Then they could plant it at home. Many of the babies have found new homes! Beth can't wait to hear how those babies have grown!
