I love these thoughts of Spring and hope!
Thanks Rita. Have a lovely day!
I needed these quotes this morning. It is raining here and 32 degrees. Spring can’t come soon enough, lol.
Hang on, Penny. It will arrive in all her glory – soon. You will be digging in the garden before you know it. It is cold here too, I am making your bean soup recipe tomorrow.
I so love this. Especially the beautiful quote about winter not lasting forever with the photo. Nice capture!
Thanks, Jeanie. Happy day and week ahead to you. Wish I could have gone to your cooking class with you.
Spring is indeed right around the corner. Love the photos and words.
Thank you, Laura. Spring is such a lovely time of year, I believe everyone loves to greet her.
Lovely thoughts and beautiful photos.
Thanks, Bonnie. I am sure you must be seeing glimpses of spring in your area.
What comfort to know that spring always follows winter. Beautiful images and quotes dear friend. Have a wonderful week!
Many thanks, dear Pam. I know you are seeing spring. I am on peony patrol, looking for signs of them peaking through the soil. You also have a wonderful week!
Beautiful, sweet friend! Spring will be here before we know it. Enjoy your week!
Thank you, Shannon. Yes, spring will soon be here in all her glory and you will be showing us lovely tablescapes in your beautiful garden. Happy week to you, my friend!
Sandra,
Such hopeful lines you have shared with us today. I especially like the first one, “This morning when I woke it was cold and wet and grey. But, a little bird sang outside my window and I remembered then, winter doesn’t last forever.”
How often I take joy in the little birds that sing outside my window in my own wintery corner of the world.
Wishing you a beautiful day…

Thanks, Brenda. Ah, yes, the little birds to offer us so much hope and joy. We love feeding our Bluejays their peanuts and watching them come for them.
Hope you are enjoying these lovely winter days.
