“Spring is here!” roars these tiny, purple flowers.

My daughter found these emerging from the dead grass and stray leaves of the front yard.

 

She informs me that they are crocuses. It’s amazing what my kindergarten daughter teaches me on a regular basis.

Even though the weather forecast calls for three days of 40 degree temperatures and rain, it would appear that spring has finally sprung.

After the long, hard winter, I can’t believe how good these tiny, purple flowers look. They look so goddamn good and brave.
