in bloom

the girls have been bringing me little bouquets lately, and i love it and treasure them. it's such a wonderful moment, when the little chubby hands of thea clutch that dandelion and in many ways don't want to let go... but her big sis is notching her to hand me the flower with a big smile...




and then the cherrie branches i got a the market last friday. the buds are so full and some of them burst already, such a sight. the blossoms are white as can be and every day now there are more on those branches on our fire place mantle. spring is in the air, not just indoors but also outside. the temperatures rose up to 57 today, o yes it's time for short sleeves and sun glasses! and the forecast looks very good, even warmer for the rest of the week!
