Daffodowndilly

Daffodowndilly

She wore her yellow sun-bonnet,
She wore her greenest gown;
She turned to the south wind
And curtsied up and down.
She turned to the sunlight
And shook her yellow head,
And whispered to her neighbour:
"Winter is dead."
~AA Milne
It is with a joyous heart that I announce that our beautiful daffodils are blooming on Wabi Sabi Hill.  It is an important event in our little herd.....not only does it mark that Spring is on the way....and I plan to celebrate by planting potatoes in tubs this weekend....but it also is the 1 year anniversary of our sweet girls' life with us....the anniversary of when we truly became a herd.

Certainly we have learned a lot in the last year....and we are not in the place we envisioned when our girls first joined us.  We have no pregnant girls....or kids.....or Layla.  But I think we are on track of where we need to be....and we are wiser.....and in love with these girls in ways we never thought possible.  
And so on this Friday Night, I celebrate the daffodils in my yard....and now in my vase.....our beautiful girls.....our crazy cat, and this beautiful life filled with lessons and moments of sheer joy.
