Spring???

I am in hopes that the signs of spring are for real. The weather is warm and the snow in the ditches are gone but it still lingers in the back of my mind, snow storms the end of March in years gone by. Robins are back along with the geese flying north and the small birds are fighting for the bird house on the porch already. Tulip and daffodil leaves are near 8 inches high and signs of buds on the daffodils.

Well I'll take the days as they come. The fresh smell of spring is intoxicating. Makes me want to get out the flower garden tools and put the furniture on the deck and front porch. I'll stop at putting up the decorative bird houses up by the back door for now. I did go and purchase a pink blossom shamrock today, though. My mom says that my Grandma Matilda had that kind. Heres hoping I keep it alive.
