A Different Kind of Snow

While many parts of the country are already enjoying warm weather
and flowers, we're having our first signs of spring and each one is a thrill. 
I'm not sure I've ever enjoyed each and every bloom as much
as this year.
 



 
My first snowdrops are precious indeed ~ not just because they
are some of the first brave blooms, but because they are not snow.





Many parts of the country are still experiencing snow, so I
especially want to share these with you to give you hope that
a different kind of snow is just around the corner.

    I miss Snowdrops as we do not have any where we live now in Italy, so really appreciated these beautiful photos.

    Snowdrops are blooming here yet; but we do have bulbs peeking through the soil.

    So sweet. It gives us hope, doesn't it? I have never planted snowdrops..not sure why. They are precious.

    Sweet snowdrops, but I hear it is going to snow tonight. The good thing about late snowfall is it melts quickly.
