Hello Spring!

Spring!

On a lighter note, the first day of Spring, here in Maryland, was just delightful. With a high of 73 and blue sky, one simply can’t complain. The maple tree in our backyard looks like it is covered with ‘‘Who-ville’’ villages.


Our crocuses, hyacinths and daffodils are making their way onto stage. The boys are discussing what to plant in the garden this year, as I subtly steer them away from the idea of a kidney bean plant. Right now, the six-year-old wants to plant peas, basil, carrots, cherry tomatoes and cucumbers and the four-year-old is leaning towards orange flowers, sunflowers and strawberries. They are excited and can't wait. “Hello Spring, we missed you!!”
