My red tulips are out!

The new secretary at Phoenix – the one that replaced me – has a GORGEOUS house with GORGEOUS flowers!

Thanks for sharing “a few” of your daffodils with me Brenda!

I can’t help it – I LOVE FLOWERS!

This truck has been a favorite subject of mine. My parents have it in their front yard – FOR SALE!

I hope that it just sits there …

I love spring – I love the smells – the spring jacket weather – the rain – the birds singing in the morning – seeing green grass once more.

My favorite part about spring are the promises it brings. Last year I tried to document each day of the new flowers blooming – the promises of coming back again and again and again.

It is interesting to me that what we are going through is happening right now – at the start of spring – the start of the season where God shows his promises through beautiful buds poking through the ground to bathe in sunshine. Little buds that have been waiting for JUST this moment – for an entire year.

These flowers aren’t welcomed eagerly into the new world – they have to push their way through rocks, roots, and dirt – into a new world covered in light – coming out of the darkness that they have spent so much time in.

I love the ways that God shows is promises in the “little” things – if He is taking care of the flowers in the ground – surely He is taking care of me.
