My one little daffodil is hanging its head. It looks weary. I think it's discouraged. It tried to bring in spring. It looked so bright and cheery last week, standing all alone alongside the wall. So sunny. Making it clear that spring is here for real. But now...
It's snowing.
No, I'm serious. It's snowing. For real.
It's beautiful, I have to give it that. Any time pure white snowflakes drift down from the sky there is a beauty that is undeniable.
But, come on!
It's April 18th. The timing is way off!
Past the middle of April, and flakes have been falling thick and steady since before I got up a couple hours ago. There is a thick layer of snow on everything. Thick, like over an inch deep. Everywhere.
I have seen snow in the first week of April. But I have never seen it this late in the springtime.
I think Spring needs a redo.
Oh, we are so ready for some warmth! The trees have budded and are waiting to leaf out. The grass has been turning ever so gradually greener day by day.
It's time.
When Husband went downstairs this morning and saw outside, he burst out laughing and said, "Are you kidding me!!?"
Yes, I think we all feel that way.
