SPRING!!!!!

Okay, I just had to break the silence of wordless Wednesday because today is one of those special days!!! Julia is making her First Communion in May so the school had a dedication mass this morning to acknowledge and encourage the Eucharistic candidates in these their final days of preparation. As I walked to church in the cool spring breeze the signs started to jump out at me.... The lilac bush has tiny buds!!!!!!!
The daffodils and tulips have pushed up through the dead leaves!!!!!!!!!!!!
THE FIRST FLOWERS APPEARED TODAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So for all my southern friends who've been in tank tops for weeks...count your blessings. Is there any wonder why we flock south on spring break when we are just getting the signs of spring at the end of March??? Oh I long for Lido Beach........

  1. Beautiful pictures! Hey here in Oklahoma we were in shorts in January but now we are expecting snow, so all our beautiful spring leaves, flowers, and buds may just freeze!
