Celebration of Spring



Daisy: What kind of a garden do you come from?
Alice: Oh, I don't come from any garden.
Daisy: Do you suppose she's a wildflower?
Alice in Wonderland (1951)

It has been windy with rain this week but a few blooms on the daffodils brightened the darkness of the days. A sure sign that spring is coming.

Please visit Freda's Quote it Saturday. For more photos visit Macro Flowers Saturday and Today's Flowers.



Note: I have had Internet connection problems since last weekend, hopefully our cable company has it all fixed now. I will be catching up with everyone over the weekend. Thank you for your patience and loyalty.

WHAT A GORGEOUS HEADER!!!!
It brightened up a very gloomy Saturday here in NC!!!

Your daffodils are my favorite color. They remind Mom of butter popcorn (and she thinks I'm always thinking of food?!!).

I|we hope your internet issues are solved because we know how aggravating that can be!!!

Hugs Madi and Mom

Your page is the nicest shock I've gotten all month!!! Wow!!! I would NEVER have put all this red with the daffodils. Just shows you how much I know, nothing!!! You are an artist for sure. The top of the page with your header is amazing, I could stare all day! This is your most beautiful header yet. I've missed you, but you sure returned with a bang, I think your creativity built up so much it exploded!

It's been awhile since I've come for a visit -- your photos are such a treat! Spring is showing up around here, too -- hurray! Were you giving me the how-to photo stitch with the switch to html, etc? That sounds scary! :)

My tulips are poking up about 2 inches but there is no other sign of spring blossoms. Yours are incredible.

Sorry bout your internet issues, my delay is computer issues.

Take care and God bless!
