spring is sprung

Oh the joy of these warm days, oozing life and fresh newness
The many lovely shades of green
Trees shimmering with tiny new leaves
Fields coming alive with color - the cheerful dandelions
Dancing on the carpets of green

I'm so glad for the warmth, the spring
For a new garden and the hope and promise it brings

Sunshine, Starbucks with my sweet sister,
Taxes are DONE and I get a rebate - hee hee!
Errands run and home again
With dear Joey and Jesse accompanying

EXCITEMENT! The season has turned
We can feel it and will enter in with gusto!!


Pizza party on the patio
SPRING HAS SPRUNG!!
Digging up strawberries and raspberries
Moving them down the hill to the new garden
Compost finally ready to dig out and mulch in

Seed packets bearing the promise of carrots and peas
String stretched between the apple tree prunings
Straight lines and planting
Water carried down in buckets to set into motion
The miracle of growth

A beautiful day.
Pushing away sadness
Choosing to live in the moment

Carpe diem!
Realizing the joy of the moments
The gift of good friends
Family
God
