This is a photo sent to us by Charlotte Croft. Her husband, Bert, is taking a stroll through a field of daffodils in Vermont. The color of early spring is yellow. In our own yard, we have forsythia, tulips, and daffodils, all dressed in their finest.

Today, being Mother’s Day, I wonder if the Orioles will show up to suck nectar from the apple blossoms in our backyard, as is their custom. It is a little chilly today, only 38 degrees when we got up. I don’t know if the weather will keep them away. They are always fun to see, with their antics of standing on their heads to partake of the juiciest blossoms.

Wherever you are, have a wonderful day, and if you have time, find a patch of daffodils through which to stroll.
