Introducing Molly

As in the unsinkable Molly. She survived against all odds. You see the wind blew her seed, along side of our driveway. She seeded herself within the stone. that we had landscaped along side of our driveway.

This Is What Molly Looked Like When First Rescued

Molly germinated in stones. This is where my husband dug her up from, the stones along side of the driveway. Molly survived against all odds.

The garbage cans being rolled out to the street, never ran over her.

My husband originally pulled Molly out as a weed, and then he looked at it more closely, because it had a flower on it, and then he came in and got me.

I instantly said, “Oh that’s a Snapdragon, please repot it, I want to rescue it.”

This is what the stoney area that my husband found Molly growing in, apparently the wind blew the seeds over and the rain pushed them through the stones and into the dirt.

Isn’t nature wonderful…………….

This is what she looked like when I bought her inside, and watered her.

She is starting to recuperate, and just like a new born baby it is starting to adjust.

And now she looks like this.

And she now resides in our family room. You might say she went from the downside of the driveway, which was equivalent to the ghetto which it could have had a much different fate for Molly. To the uptown version of our family room.

Molly could have had the car run over her on the side of the driveway, or the garbage can which are stored on the side of the driveway. She could have been stepped on, crushed or ran over by a tire on the car.

Let’s hear it for Molly, the Unsinkable Molly, who survived against all odds.

I guess God does protect things that are his creations and nature at its finest.

I will end this article the way I do all my articles as long as the United States is in any conflict at home or abroad.

Please Pray For Peace

Please Stop The Violence

Till Next Time
