Is is just me or does it seems like this past winter lasted forever? Maybe it has been because I have been cooped up most of the winter, but I feel like a bear who has been hibernating in a cave for the last six months!
But, I am so happy to say that I think that Spring has finally arrived. I always look forward to saying good bye to the cold Ohio winters. I admit to suffering from the Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) and spring fills me with a sense of renewal and energy. I think I can best share with you what spring means to me through some pictures I recently took. The first one is a picture of a painting that I just completed for my Mom. Working in her flower beds gives me such pleasure and I wanted to paint a Happy Flower Picture to share with her the joy I feel when I am spending time with her.
The next two pictures show you my biggest source of joy, my two year old granddaughter, Taylor. She loves helping MiMi in my own flower beds and she is helping me dig up dirt in the first picture. The second picture is a favorite of mine so I'm sharing it with you too.
The last pictures are my spring flowers in bloom. When they begin blooming, I know for sure that spring is finally here!
Yep! I love spring.....for so many reasons!
I love your painting of Happy Flowers. They are happy and the painting made me smile. Your grandaughter is so sweet. It has been awhile since mine were that little. I enjoy reading your blog, keep it up. Shirley
