The daffodil bed next to the front door has been a lovely source of sunshine even on the rainy days. I am so glad I put them there! As one variety decides it is done, another is beginning to bloom. The plum tree has been covered in white, now showing more and more green. I am eager to see how many flowers were pollinated, to watch the other fruit trees as they continue to develop. This will be the third year for the plum, the second for the Asian pears (dare I hope?), and the first for the quinces and peaches.
The children are dealing well with the damp. Need to try to keep them active and alert on days they are mostly inside, that's tougher than it sounds.
March is almost over, Tom's birthday is so close! Carol's baby will be born next month. The boys will have their first SpiralScouts award ceremony in two weeks.
We are so busy! And it's raining on our parade... (but not very hard).
