The First Blooms of the Year

I’m pretty crazy about the world. It’s full of awesome things. But I ESPECIALLY like it when it starts to bloom. Which it did TODAY on my terrace. No flowers yesterday. Today, TWO. I know there are a lot of caps in this post, but there are also a lot of caps IN MY HEART. Two yellow crocuses said hello to the world this morning. That’s one, up there. And here’s the other one right here. Goodness gracious they’re lovely.

Since there are just two of them right now, they could get kind of lonely. Fortunately, they will soon be joined by an EXPLOSION of lilacs and magnolia blooms. Magnolias on the left. Lilacs on the right. I almost typed raspberries instead of lilacs. Don’t they look like little berries?

From the looks of things, I think I’m going to have a daffodil tomorrow as well. Who can say no to SPRING?!
