On this brilliantly sunny February Saturday, we ordered chicks and ducklings from the feed store, and discovered garlic, crocus, vibrant-pink rhubarb emerging from the soil, and soaked up the first hints of spring-to-come.
In a week in which we had a lot of sickness and stress, and grief, I am doubly blessed that we are learning to make our home a haven, a place where we can witness birth, and rebirth, and celebrate life.
I’m sorry to hear that it’s been a tough week for you and your family. I hope that everyone is feeling better soon :- ) I love that Wendell Berry quote…and all of the pictures of “spring” things growing around your yard.
