A Time to Grow



January
something’s growing
in the sunshine
amaryllis, geraniums
grandkids


These last few days of January brought sun and thawing here in our neck of the woods. Mary arranged some plants in this corner of the dining area near our large patio door to catch the sun and they are doing well. The large bloomer is her Christmas-present amaryllis and on the floor she has started a flat of geranium seeds that poked out of the ground a few days ago to start their climb towards the sunlight.

We’ve been fortunate to see all the grandkids recently. Yes, they are growing, too. Eventually they will blossom into full adulthood and thrive in the sunshine they seek.
