Spring is here

Just got back from Jr. Mom'ing with Paloma & Jennifer. We went to the park & P played on the swings & slide & practiced her balance. She did very well. Each day starts out super damp around here, but the sky was bright blue & the clouds were not obscuring the sun at all.

P at work:


I went out to windowshop for bulbs & plants for the garden yesterday. Between heading to a local nursery & pruning forsythia + magnolia branches to brighten our house up - I've got a real hankerin' for the beauty of spring. Since I'm not on the East Coast anymore, I'm asking folks back there to think of making the trek to Longwood Gardens, the botanical gardens on the mall in DC or the National Arboretum - just knowing someone back home may be going to those places warms my heart.

Here are two pictures of pretty plants out here:





That is all for now...
