This morning my dear little Thomas was sitting on my lap for our morning snuggle and wistfully asked me, "is it Spring yet?". The sun was pouring into the window and the day looked to be one of those lovely warm March days. One of those days that fill a soul with hope that Spring is on it's way...
We decided to check our calendar and count the days!
Fifteen days exactly.
This is the time of year I get out my garden books and start really enjoying the thought of flowers and green again...Oh! and porch life... we live on our porch as soon as the weather is warm enough!
As I read the Friday Garden Column in our local news paper, it suggested that planting cold weather crops like lettuce, spinach and peas are on my to-do list this month. Yikes!... I better get my boxes prepared. They lasted the winter beautifully and are ready for another year filled to the brim with vegetables and herbs.
Today the children enjoyed the afternoon playing in their sand box... in the warm sun. It has been a long winter... we are ready for spring!
