Sometimes growth can easily go unnoticed.
Sometimes growth can be significant to some and meaningless to others.

“What color is tomorrow, Mommy?”
“Blue”
“Ummm (scanning the room), you could take a picture of Joshua’s flashlight!”
“I already did. For red day.”
“Oh. What about these? (holding up some scissors)”
Too bad today’s color wasn’t grey. Grey skies. Lots of rain. A chance of snow. Hello??? It is MAY!
