When visiting Gothenburg, one weekend in January, we stayed with our friends Sini and Lars. After putting our overnight bags in their bedroom, which we were to occupy, Sini asked: "Did you recognize the plant?" "No. Which plant?" I asked. Turns out she still had our ficus that I had given her before moving to the states seven years ago. Then she tells me I can have it back. At first I think that I can't take her plant from her. I gave it to her to keep, not just to watch over while we were away. But when she insists, I accept. Feeling really excited about the fact that my ficus from our years living in Gothenburg, has been well kept and is ready to move back home. That is how we have come to have a Benjamin Ficus in our living room window.
