avocado!

This plant just hangs on forever. Every time I get dissatisfied with its looks and chop its head off, it springs back with new huge leaves, but never spreads out. I have to remember to water it frequently, or it gets droopy. My little girl notices this right away, she says "Your plant is sad, Mommy! Look, those leafs is sad."
Well, it's now over four feet tall, up to my chin.
The newer leaves are even larger than the older ones.
They have some odd pockmarked bumps on them but I look close and don't see any signs of insects. I'll have to look up what that might be.
