The first Daffodil of Spring

I have been inside since Friday with a wicked cold but I just went outside tonight to take my ever-whining dog Humperdink to go potty and there it was! In my flower bed was the very first daffodil of spring! Yes, I know it is not spring yet, but there it was!  Standing tall and proud and oh so yellow.

Daffodils are a sign from God, my mother used to always tell me.  It's how you know renewal is coming.  I so love daffodils.  They remind me of my mother's love and of God's love.  "Thank you God for the birds that sing, thank you God for everything!"
