The yard is just filled with newly emerging, tiny leaves, and new growth all over. I might even consider cutting the grass next week, but I probably won't have to since we're expecting another chilly spell.
I've been immensely enjoying the full spectrum of spring weather we've been having, and - dare I say it? - I'm not dreading next week's potential snow showers. I could go for a few more days of the white stuff before summer comes barreling in.
I have a very talky post coming soon, unless I change my mind (read: chicken out), but until then, I'll be hanging out with my plant BFFs and marveling at the miracle of life, as I do every year at this time. <3
