Mild winter or not, it was a welcome sight one day this week when we saw the daffodils had bloomed in our little flower bed outside of our front door. Peanut was the first one to notice as we stepped outside to take Luna for a walk:
There are so many things to love about this picture. The promise and beauty of spring. The joy on my daughter's face. Lammie dangling upside down from Peanut's hand. The bunny on a stick. Peanut's bare feet because she adores Rapunzel right now. Her disproportionately large big toe. (Something she got from her dad. You're welcome, sweetheart.)
The one drawback from an unusually mild winter:
I still have A LOT of wood to burn. I guess this is gonna be a S'mores kind of summer. And that's just fine too.
That pre-Halloween snowstorm was scary and destructive. But everything turned out alright thanks to a stranger with a chainsaw.
You definitely captured the beauty of spring. We're still about a month away from flowers blooming but the extra sunshine has been enjoyed up here even though there is still a lot of snow on the ground. Enjoy the s'mores.
ReplyDeleteThe extra sunshine is great! Makes such a difference in moods and energy.
DeleteWe have about a week or two of spring and then we're on to summer. It's already muggy in the afternoons. But that's OK. Maybe I'll learn how to plant a summer garden :)
