Isn't that FANTASTIC, Pat....I would be filled with Hope, too....It is rather Miraculous, isn't it? Wishing you the BEST year, ever! Good Health, Great Happiness and more WONDROUS Miracles like those two above...!
You obviously live in a much different climate than I do... we have yet to hit the coldest part of winter. That will come later this month and into February. Flowers don't start poking their heads out until April or May, depending on spring temps. And by then, we are more than ready for greenery.
Tomorrow I will just have to go out and examine my garden! I thought I saw a rose through the kitchen window on Christmas day, but that's not unusual with my peculiar bush. Daffs, though, how exciting!
Oh Pat, that's wonderful.
ReplyDeleteZ: glad you think so too:)
ReplyDeleteWe've only just got crocus and snowdrops coming through the soil!
ReplyDeleteIt seems to early but so very Beautiful !
ReplyDeleteWonderful photo today.

ReplyDeleteYes the flowers are most confused this year. We still have around 9 degrees C here.
ReplyDeleteI don't think I've ever seen a daffodil blooming in January. Here's hoping it's a good omen :)

ReplyDeleteThank you Ms. Pat. Something about seeing those flowers at this particular time of year is life affirming.
That is lovely, Pat. I can't remember a lovelier autumn than we've just had, and those two flowers are just remarkable in January.
ReplyDeleteJust popped by to wish you good health and happiness for 2012. Will try to keep in touch this year. Lovwe and hugs xx
ReplyDeleteJohnG: I'd love some crocus and snowdrops.
ReplyDeleteParsnip: thank you:)
Naomi: since your comment you have lost the wonderful Sweetie and you are very much in my thoughts. A big hug to you.
Rashbre: in spite of the tempest in the last 24 hours I haven't felt cold - really weird.
Kim: yes of course it is a good omen. We are all going to have a great 2012.

Yours is so lovely to see!

ReplyDeletePonita: you are right our climates are very different but this is highly unusual even here.
ReplyDeleteEryl: We have been deluged with torrential rain but now it is dryer I must have a look too. Can be quite exciting from now on.
