The Little Plant That Could

At work my bosses office is right above mine. Many times 

when I need to take something too her or talk to her I take 

a "shortcut" to her office.

My shortcut? Walking out the fire escape door that 

leads outside and

walking up the concrete stairs. Lazy.... probably. 

This past spring I saw something cool on one of my 

little shortcuts up the

steps...

This little plant started growing out of the dead fall leaves!! 

I thought it was pretty cool that it spread its roots on concrete

and cheered it on every time I went outside. 

It did pretty well for not growing in dirt. And then our landscaping guy came and

cleaned out the stairwell!!
