soon it will appear....

the crazy weather. here where I live, we have a dusting of snow on the ground. i'm ready for spring and just about every one i know would love for it to appear, right now, but, it will within time.  spring to me is such a special time of renewal.  i do see the sprouts of daffodils coming up, how amazing that some of the spring perennials can push through the ground, when below it is still cold and hard. each spring i am reminded of the resurrection of Christ and the renewal of the Holy Spirit within each one of us that have received the gift of eternal life. an opportunity to start anew, refreshed. the beauty to see buds that are a wonderful shade of green begin to appear on trees. the soft yellows, whites, and the tulips of many different vivid colors, this is what stands out to me. the earth actually "waking" up again after a deep sleep of winter. yes, i am looking forward to spring, as you are....it will come, before we know it, the beauty of spring will appear.

  1. I am praying that it comes soon before the cold blues come back to some of us again. Spring is one of my favorite times of the year as well. I love to watch all the blooms. My favorites are the cherry blossoms and believe it or not my the blooms on a crab apple tree are pretty and pink. Watching the golden rods bloom even though my allergies dont appreciate. The colors are so bold after a grey dark gloomy winter.

  2. I hear you there! I am sick of the snow and I am ready for Spring. I love the changing of seasons but I could honestly do without the snow. It's the one season I never seem to miss. It's only good for being snowed in with your family for a couple days. lol I can not wait for Spring!
