In several of my recent blogs, I have written about working in the winter garden to welcome in the treasured first blush of spring.
At times, I have felt that the long days in the garden, cleaning out beds and pruning trees and bushes, seem endless.
Today, after an afternoon of light garden work, I was reminded that the cool winter days of cleaning and pruning were well worth the labor as I enjoy these spring surprises, which give one's soul much joy.
