Several Saturdays ago, Joe and Hannah surprised me by bringing me into the kitchen where they had laid out potting soil, pots, and bulbs (we had purchased but didn't have time to plant in the Fall).
It has been so fun watching the hyacinths and tulips and crocuses come up....we are forcing Spring inside earlier so in this windy, sunny, unpredictable weather--we can still smell the flowers of life along the way.

Julie,
Love the flowers, hycinths have been one of my favorite spring flowers since childhood (especially the purple ones). I love how they smell. I'll have to try to grow them inside like that next year since I don't think I can get anything to grow for very long outside here in Vegas.
