...and I went to the Community Seed Exchange. Look what I found: Fava Beans from a fabulous friend, sweet peas from a great neighbor, one rare melon and yes: seeds to grow four leaf clovers! Lucky.
...and the kids played ALL day. It was so comfy and peaceful.
... and it SNOWED. Not okay. At all.
Yesterday and today before it started to snow we worked in the yard. All of us. Cleaning and prepping for a Spring we felt coming until the cold wet snow came back. Now the vegetable garden is ready for new growth, the bushes are trimmed and the sandbox is filled with brand new, clean play sand. I am always amazed at how happy that kind of work makes me. There is something about dirt and sun that heals us or at least it heals me. While digging in the dirt with my hands - my head, my thoughts are clear and it is easy to see the promise of lighter times ahead. I am grateful.
