I hear spring is right around the corner. I am more than ready. Winters are not my favorite. It’s cold, the air is dry, the ground is wet, my hands get cracked, bleed, and hurt a lot. It’s hard to find the motivation to do much. All that sounds good is to sip hot chocolate, watch old movies, and try to keep warm.

Granted, this winter has been fairly mild. Other than some very cold weather in December, and a few big snow storms, we have had it much better than last year. I have even seen a lot of our daffodils and iris starting to come up (and we are still getting snow off and on). It’s still cold though. And I miss my garden and being able to play outside.

My husband got me these flowers for our anniversary. A gorgeous bouquet that has all my favorites, including Gerber daisies (which aren’t in the photo). They are bringing a bit of spring to our home. I really loved how the sunset coming through the window was highlighting the flowers. One of those magical moments.

It’s too bad humans don’t take a cue from bears. Hibernation sounds appealing right now, doesn’t it?
