Weird and Wonderful

Many years ago/once upon a time a Mother took her three small

children to the school fete. While they were there one of the children

wanted an ugly cactus for their bedroom so the mother, being a very nice Mum,

bought it for them knowing it would be difficult for them to kill.

Years past and the children grew up and the moved away 

leaving the poor cactus all alone on the window sill unloved and uncared for.

The Mother felt sorry for it so put it in her greenhouse

with some other plants where it was warm and looked after.

Then one morning the Mother went into the greenhouse where she found

the ugly old cactus had grown a huge and beautiful flower

which was much bigger than the cactus itself.

Proving good things come to those who wait or whatever moral 

you want to gain from this story.

Have a great day.
