Don’t you just love bulbs? Work once and years of beauty
Spring is such a special time of year. It’s like New Year’s for nature. What do I mean by that you say? Well it’s the time all the perennials get another opportunity to grow and bloom. So as soon as I can, I walk around like the garden detective and look for signs of growth.
My mini deck garden is coming along nicely.
I hold my breath when I go to locations where some of my prized plants are to come like my peonies. I start to envision what I want for the upcoming season. What colors speak to me this year, what new plants I want to try.
Cute finches happy that I put some food out for them.
Watching the birds and the bees at work in my yard is always a fun thing and I am trying to expose the boys to these joys in hopes that they will have a spring ritual with nature when they have a home of their own. Whether it be to tend a garden or simply to observe the wildlife in their space. It’s all very magical to witness.
The sound of birds singing in our yard is so sweet and the two times a day we hear the Canadian geese heading to the lake and then heading home is also a favorite time for me. They have their own commuting schedule – to the lake in the morning and home in the afternoon.
I am late to plan my veggie garden but choosing to ease up this year and not fuss as much so that I can enjoy it more. So I will head to the garden center to purchase some veggies later this week.
I hope you are having a nice spring and taking time to notice the little things in nature that really add beauty to our lives.
Have a blessed day!
Belinda
