It's theirs, after all. They don't need a reason. You've asked twice, and it's obvious they don't want to part with it. There's other material available.

Of course you should dutifully return it each time, but eventually I think they'll give in to the tree's desires for a new home. __________________ "I want life in every word to the extend that it's absurd....." -- the postal service

Send little notes back to the people telling them what a nice time it's having in your care. But you can't. Joanie __________________ Dogs are just children who eat off the floor

I almost stopped watching it during the creepy pregnant time lapse...those french... Maybe I'll go ask neighbors I know better to ask for me about the tree I like.

Joanie!
