Well it's spring again and the quince bush has been in bloom. This year it bloomed early due to the very warm winter we've had. It's timing was lovely as I have a great neighbor and dear friend, both whose birthdays are days apart. So I was able to give them both bouquets for their special days.

It's so much fun to give flowers as gifts. They are one of my favorite things. Their grace and beauty are healing, celebratory, and nurturing.

Here's to spring and all her gifts.
