Bonnie joined our family this past weekend.
She is a tomato plant.
The super-enthusiastic (!!!) sales lady gave me these care instructions:
Give it lots of water,
lots of sunlight,
lots of love,
(hope for the best,)
and it should bear some really sweet fruit.

I'm wondering:
was she really giving me advice about the plant
or about my boys in the shopping cart?
I guess it doesn't really matter -
in that regard, the tomatoes and the boys are about the same.
Except, of course, the boys are more delicious.
