The other day, my friend,
Yumi, brought her
3-month-old baby to class......
and no, she
wasn't bored,
thank you very much...
class was interrupting
her nap time!
And this...
is one of THE most perfect
pictures I think I will
ever take.
****************
Monday, dawned cold and drizzly.
In the corner of our garden.....I saw something that the boys and I always look for this time of year....
Our favorite tree....a weeping willow-esque ume (plum...but not for eating, just a flowering kind)
has started blooming.....
The blooms are so light and wonderful to just look at...but, the scent they have is even more beautiful.
Can't you just almost smell spring in the air??

Some days, you wake up just knowing that, despite the crappy weather and slight headache threatening to become a reality, you know it is going to be a special day.

And it was.
Thanks to the blossoms in our garden....and
this beauty from Las Vegas.... via San Diego!!
(She is now hanging in the doorway between the kitchen and living room!)
that links your true family
is not one of blood, but
of respect and joy in
each other's life.

of one family grow up
under the same
roof.

Ahh blossoms, my SIL who lives in Bristish Columbia sends me "Smug Shots" of the flowers blooming in February. We, back east, are still under many feet of snow and will be for a while. Keep posting your Smug Shots.
I have some daffodils blooming. Yay!
Yumi...would that be the one Austin knows...he always ask me to ask you about her.
OK, stinkin' cute baby, and lovely photo of the hands. Lovely pictures of the ume too, I get that feeling the one where you just can't wait for spring to come (BE-YOU-TI-FUL garden by the way...) But loved the quote! ... and the flamingo of course...
Why look at that--once you actually put something in the mail it doesn't take all that long to get there!
Nice blog. Like the picture of flower and a baby. He is so cute. Like the floral layout of your blog. Iflorist.co.uk
Love the blossoms. Can we get another picture when it's in full bloom?
love the tree....and flamingo...but that baby photo is just so sweet :-)
Wow, you have some awesome photog skills lady!
And Bach, I LOVE his books, words, thoughts,and have quoted him many times.
Can you kiss those baby cheeks for me next time she comes to class with her mommy?
