I started to type this before and deleted bc I'm like, that sounds bad. But I think you guys get me.

I had a legitimate party in my head yesterday when I realized they are about to turn 7 months and that means I've kept them alive, injury free, and healthy for a half of a year! I mean, plants don't last a week with me.
