Snowdrop sighting!


OK, I don't know about you, but those first flowers of spring are worth celebrating. Yesterday as I helped the eldest with her paper route I noticed some small white flowers growing beside a doorway one street over from ours. Today, we grabbed our nature notebooks (first time since last fall, I think), some pencils, and headed over. I loved the drawings all three of them did (no bias here ;) and when we came home and looked up the name of the flower, sure enough, they're snowdrops. I'll have to scan in the kids' sketches soon.
Thank you, God, for Spring!

  1. I would love to see the kids' sketches. I agree that snowdrops are worth celebrating. We're still watching for ours, the little green shoots are getting bigger...first day of Spring coming right up.
