through the seasons
every photo a prayer
Today I am looking through my photo archives for April and May.

The Walmart tag says the plant was grown by NMG in Grand Rapids, MI. I found the site: NMG. “Neal Mast Greenhouses”
On Saturday, I went to Walmart with Karl. We put our face masks on in the car/parking lot, and the plants outside caught my attention right away. Greeters sit near the door and hand sanitizer. Clean, room to shop, and a good atmosphere.
This is the first time I used the camera in awhile. Good to practice again.

What a good year for the snowdrops. They grow and endure, and return each year. The first flowers in our yard. They picture a kind word, a small poem, everyday blessings. A post in my Reader, a devotional book from a thrift store, and a small plant by the window. I do not know when they first grew and bloomed in the gardens, and we have been here a long time.
March days
time to observe
and watch for
all the beginnings
of Spring
