But I got it. I felt so sad for her!! I would also sob if I lost something I'd been cultivating for so long! At least my mom and I will get each other when we talk about plants!

EDIT: This led me to be reminded to check ebay to see if I could find the same glass pig that she had... and there it was! Cheaper than I'd ever seen it! I am gonna surprise her and remake the terrarium for her!!! YAY!

OMG, astrid!!! What a super amazing story. Thanks for sharing. Your mom will be beside herself once more, but this time due to your wonderful gift. You are an awesome daughter!!!!
