TY, Christine. I've seen other Ipomoeas do that, but haven't observed this one enough (yet) to know it well.

Now that Tiffany has mentioned it, those leaves do look way to big for I. cordatotriloba. I think I may have blown that ID. I think it may be Ipomoea indica.
Here is some I. indica pictures that show the leaf variability and size. I have never seen the flowers as light as yours, but they are variable also.

Hmm... I think mine looks more like I. cordatotriloba than your images of I. indica. But mostly because that flower is so blue. Pretty.
