There was a snowstorm this week, a rather major event that brought us more than a foot of snow. School was cancelled, which JT celebrated as if he’d never be expected to return to class.
I enjoyed sleeping in and our cozy days but it is March and I am ready for Spring. While we shoveled ourselves out from the storm, I couldn’t help but think about the previous Sunday That day was sunny and T and I set out for a walk to leave some nuts and peanut butter pine cones for the wildlife along the D & R Canal. Here and there, when we looked closely, we saw tiny signs of a green Spring. Most of the blooms will take several more weeks to arrive so the witch hazel in bloom was particularly lovely.
Clocks spring forward tonight; each day brings a little more sunlight. I’m looking forward to Spring and as I wait for the snow to melt and reveal blooms, I will admire the witch hazel and the promise it brings.
