Bzzzz

Oh, delightful Spring. I don't know what it is this year, but I feel like I am fully enjoying Spring for the first time in ages. Perhaps it was the never ending Winter or the fact that this year it hasn't been god-awful-hot early, but it has been lovely. I feel like a little bee buzzing to each flower, sniffing each blossom and savoring all the colors and beauty. The sunshine has been abundant on most days and I am trying to make the most of my spare time.  I got to visit Morton Arboretum for the first time last week with some dear friends.  If you've never been, I highly recommend it. I felt as if I was in a dream, as corny as that sounds. I guess I really do have spring fever.

Spring at the farm has been good so far. We had our first harvest last Friday. I feel blessed to have a job that allows me to be out in nature. Look who decided to nest in one of our flower baskets? I think Momma Bird wasn't so happy with my snapping some photo's, but it was well worth it.
