Snowy Spring Garden
Winter gave us a little snowy gift Monday morning.
Things are so temporary, and I was fulfilled inside knowing that I was just as excited for the snow as my kids were.
I should probably put this bird from my mom’s garden inside during winter. I just like seeing her there though.
And in her 6th year in my garden (which makes her probably 10-13 years old) is this Hellebore that was a sister plant to one I gave my mom as she was undergoing treatment for Leukemia and wanted to see her garden in bloom – in February – March – April of 2007. These were what I found at the garden center…
I had no idea that they existed.
So as I delighted in the blooming Hellebores in snow, the kids were stoping around the garden elsewhere…
Give a boy a water squirt bottle – he will be entertained for hours (forget the little water guns!)…
Almost time to get to school – but wait! “I forgot to make a snow angel!!!”
Of course there is time for that…
Spring will be here in the garden before we know it. And there are grand plans for this year if time allows for it…
