Happy Spring!
I have been posting on a couple of my other blogs about how much this time of year means on a spiritual level, and will get a post on here sharing more about that on Easter, but today, just want to say that my dear hubby cleared the remaining leaves off our property.
Because of an unusually mild Fall season, our leaves stayed on the trees for longer than I have ever seen them. During the holiday season I went to the New Jersey Botanical Gardens to a wreath making gathering, and there were still leaves on trees and some of them green! Very peculiar for November in our area. So it threw us off a bit on the raking.
BUT the happy news is that we have uncovered many crocuses, daffodils that have yet to show their buds, tulips peeking out of the ground, my double-flowered day lilies are up a few inches, the Shasta daisies are getting new leaves on the stalks, many of my herbs including catnip, oregano, sage, rosemary and others are all coming up. I could go on and on, but what a joyful thing to see the gardens and trees beginning to show signs of life after their winter rest.
