A couple of weeks ago I walked under trees with bare branches. I strolled over to a Forsythia that was barren. I noticed a couple of daffodils but otherwise our neighborhood was still in winter.
And then the sun started shining and the blooms appeared.
I am surrounded by color, beautiful color.
I am in love with our earth and its beauty.

We are not quite that pretty here yet!! A muddy mess actually. I am watching the early news and it is snowing about 5 miles from here. Let me go check the window....Nope. No snow here, Thank you! I DID see daffodils in the back yard were blooming. But then I looked a little to the right and saw the weeds sprouting too. I'm itching to get out there but not until the rain from yesterday drys up.

Happy Easter, friend.

Yes, it is lovely to see the colour returning - however slowly!
