Signs of Spring
We’re seeing the first signs of Spring in the garden. I love seeing the snowdrops come up, and the first daffodils, too. We’ll be seeing more varieties of daffodils and the tulips soon, too - I can’t wait! Not sure what these are ... we’ll know soon!
So much snow …
It snowed multiple times this week, and this is the most accumulation we've had since moving to Chicagoland ten years ago. It is really peaceful and beautiful, in spite of the cold. Though it feels like it will take forever to melt, and Spring seems very far away ...

Love in the neighborhood
I enjoy stumbling upon these little painted rocks when I'm out for a walk in the neighborhood!
