Spring is here…this photo was taken by my 10 yr old daughter, Sydney. These tulips have died off and are merely shriveling leaves, but our deep purple Irises are now blooming and we are anxiously anticipating the arrival of our peonies!
Today though is not so “springy” as it is unseasonably cold and rainy. I’m convinced the Lord purposely sent this day to slow us down! To make us stop and rest. We’ve spent the majority of our last weeks working outdoors and it is definitely time for rest. As an avid gardener I also have a deep appreciation for rainy days, knowing that we will reap the benefits come harvest time.
