After being in bed for the best part of two days, I ventured downstairs today and was lured into the garden by bright sunshine only to find the weather beautifully mild.
I poked around and found, at the edges of the receding snow and between the slicks of mud, the first points of green daring to show themselves. Some still encased in ice.
The boys were so happy to be outside. And much to their delight there was plenty of snow left for digging.
I was so happy to see the blue sky and feel the mild breeze. Particularly after being cooped up for a couple of days. I can't wait to see all these trees covered with green again.
