Although I live in Wisconsin and the winters are long and usually stretch into late March/early April, the small pot of daffodils in my living room is a little reminder that there is an end to the cold and snow. It can't last forever; daffodils need to grow.
I open the blinds at night before I go to sleep so the flowers can see the sun, which rises hours and hours before I do.
And the next morning, they're almost all open.
They look like sharp baby birds
I love that I can look back at my blog entries from just about a year ago and see such similar and beautiful things that were in my life. In fact, when I listed my favorite flowers a second ago, I hadn't yet looked at these pictures. But in glancing through my blog entries and pictures, I found...
The irises
The charming cousin of the daffodil?
The red and yellow tulips
The amaryllis
And my lovely daffodils.
