Spring Arriving

Image
  Featured image: It's A Beautiful Morning Isn’t it glorious watching and listening to spring arrive, not only in our hearts but also in actually watching Mother Earth come alive. Wonderful, wonderful Mother Earth. Red buds, like the flowers that come first before the leaves on the oak trees. Spring green ferns uncurling, stretching like a small baby waking from a nap.
