The flowers are waking up!



The flowers have begun waking from their winter slumber. Spring comes early when skies are clear, the sun is out, and its a high of 68! This is the first sprout of my bougainvillea on my patio. I always look forward to the first blossom and for some reason feel the need to document it. My Japanese Maple hasn't started sprouting but I think it will over the next few weeks.
February 27th is the American Martyrs annual 5k and last year it was the day I planted my imatients and lasted until October. I am eagerly awaiting to make it a tradition and plant them again this year. I am so fulfilled taking care of my little plants. They bring me so much joy.

"..but he never left them without evidence of himself and his goodness. For instance, he sends you rain and good crops and gives you food and joyful hearts."
Acts 14:17
