This picture is from our front yard and was taken last April. See those short little plants growing among the tulips and daffodils? I don't know what they are, but last year they took over about a third of this bed. I never could catch up with them, because it is really hard to weed when the good things are this big. This year they were covering about half of it. So now they are gone!!!! Spent most of the afternoon pulling them up, and just in time. The tulips are about 3 inches tall, and the daffodils are just starting to peek through the mulch. Becky, you are right - a weed is anything that is growing where you don't want it! You have no idea how often I think of that. LOL
Funny! But oh so true. I am looking forward to starting my spring cleaning on Tuesday. It was 88 here today, and should be in the high 60s the rest of the week, so many things should be starting to brave the elements.

ReplyDeleteAfter I posted this on April 8, we had 4 serious snow storms, with snow up to 12 inches deep. (See the April 15 post, 'Inside Job') What a crazy year! Our last snow storm was April 30th. The daffodils really took a beating, because every time David shoveled the walk, that's right, the snow ended up right on top of the daffodils. But now they are up, and looking great once again. The amazing celebration of resurrection every year. :D
