    Isn’t it amazing how quickly it went from winter to full-throttle spring? The leaves popped out yesterday. Normally they wait another week, but everything is just BURSTING into life. Even the oaks are blooming. Happy mother’s day!!

      It sure is amazing and it’s happening here too… In fact, it’s almost summery today and the greens and blossoms just won’t quit. YAY! Happy Mother’s Day to you, too. ❤

      Thanks, Noelle. High humidity yesterday following a week of spring bliss. Much needed rain for the gardens today and new colors are popping out daily. Stay safe and well, my friend. Enjoy your week! 🙂
