Tulip Update!

It's a miracle! Surely it's not just a fluke of nature. Surely God is speaking to me through these amazing little plants. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life. But I digress...What I want to show you is this!



and this:



There are 5 of them! I'll keep you posted on their development. I'm sure you're all anxiously awaiting blooming news.

These guys are back:




Also, Molly went to the beauty shop and she is gorgeous and she knows it!



I love Springtime and how everything seems so fresh and new. Yesterday I spent the day in the garden planting (translated: digging in the dirt). Now some of you might think of vegetables when you think garden. I only think of flowers. I am my father's daughter. He grew up in a family that truck farmed. They grew their own veggies and trucked them in to Boston to the Farmer's Market to sell them. But my dad was only interested in planting flowers. So, as the story goes, his mother let him plant his flowers. This really stirred up the other kids who were busy in the vegetable garden. They always thought he was the favorite. I'll tell you some stories about him sometime. He is a fascinating guy. Spoiled rotten, but fascinating.

Have a great and glorious weekend!

Once again I've been having trouble getting logged on to post. I'm not wild about the new blogger. I could walk upstairs and do it but none of my photos are on that computer and I like to post with pictures. Oh well. Soon, very soon.
