I just can't take the Dirt anymore.......Today will be last time.......
Let me give you the background on this tree. When my Grandma Sparrow died 11 years ago this tree was given to my parents in a small basket. My Aunt Ina had it for several years then my mom kept it in her home until it was touching the ceiling. When we moved into our house mom handed it down to me. I have been cleaning up dirt ever since the boys learned to pull them- selves up. Last week I moved it to the corner of the living room but it just hits the ceiling there. It is not happy. Today when the 4 little hands went in the dirt again, I had had enough. The tree is now hanging out on the front porch. I will have to cut it in pieces and put it in the garbage when J is sleeping, because he is not happy with me for taking it out of the house. You can't see the tears in this picture but they are there.

J is getting so big!
You could just cut the tree down to size and re-plant it...then you can grow it all over again and share more dirty tales in the future! Heck, you could even split it into like 4 new trees!! Ok, you didn't need to know that, sorry. This is Bryon's wife by the way. My mom alerted me to your note on our blog and had to know who you were..it was funny.
Did you try putting a garbage sack around the dirt? It seems to work if they can't get to the dirt (unless they can rip the bag open). Good Luck!!!
