"Hey mom, look."
I looked at my son and noticed he was holding his phone out for me to look at a picture he had taken. He had been in the back yard hosing off his mountain bike that he's hoping to take out later this week.
"What is it," I said squinting.
Then I realized what he was showing me. It was a bit of a blurry picture of fuzzy greens and whites.
"Are those snowdrops?"
"Yeah, there's a whole bunch out back now."
I grabbed my phone, coat, and headed out the back door into the damp and clammy air. It was not a beautiful day today bu tit was made more beautiful by these little lovelies I've been waiting to see all year!
Oh. This makes me happy. Here in NE Iowa, we're not quite ready for blooming flowers (at least I haven't seen any!), so I love seeing them bloom elsewhere. This is just the happy post I needed!
