Waiting On Spring

I went out yesterday and discovered that my chives are starting to poke their heads up.

Which made me start longing for Spring.

I’ve been planning my garden. Reed is taking out a few trees from our stream bank to help our garden get more sun this year. Hopefully we can increase our yield this season.

Dreamin’ of flowers in my flower pots. Our backyard always looks so sad in the winter. But it really comes to life in the spring and summer.

Reed talks about ripping out this herb garden and upgrading it. But I won’t let him. I love it just the way it is. Herb gardens aren’t modern. They are old fashioned goodness making their way back in modern times.

And really. Doesn’t this swing look lonely?

Parker and I have been reading books about Spring.

We are dreaming of spring showers and the rainbows that follow.

Life is good, and is only getting better.

I have so many dreams of spring and summer projects scheduled for the coming months. It has been a awhile since I have really had the desire (time? strength? opportunity?) to do some re-doing around here.

Anticipation. The good kind. That’s the word for today.

    My tulips and daffodils are peeking out of the ground and it is driving me wild. I want to plant stuff so bad, but I also know that a frost is right around the corner.

    BTW I got the book and read it in one afternoon. It was fascinating and an amazing read. Thanks!
