My grandparents had a maple tree in their backyard when I was a kid. I remember watching these fall down from the sky. Sometimes I’d try to catch them. My grandmother told me to find one and we’d try to grow a tree out of it. I found the biggest one I could and we planted it together. Soon it sprouted and turned into a little sapling. It was in her garden so we transplanted it to a better location. That tree is every bit of 30 feet tall or more now. And while she is gone, that maple tree, myself, and the memories remain.
