Not so Wordless Wednesday, Spring in my Garden

By
Real Estate Sales Representative with RE/MAX Preferred RS152252A

spring flowers

Here they are, the first signs of hope that Spring will arrive this Friday.  With JJ, my puppy, already biting the heads off of the daffodils that have yet to bloom, I'm thinking I may have to be grateful for whatever spring color that survives.  JJ has been a light that entered my life last July and he keeps me smiling, every day.  If you ever want someone to throw you a parade every time you come home, buy a dog.  It's the best thing I have ever done for myself.

So, let's raise our glasses to a great spring market.  Let's put it out to the Universe that we need a strong spring market to see us through the rest of the year.  Our clients are counting on us.  Our families are counting on us. 

 

Below, to make you smile too, is my baby, with his first big boy haircut!!

JJ gets a big boy haircut!

Ahhh, the first crocus of spring, and a fuzzy puppy to boot. Thanks for posting.

Kathy, thanks!  From your mouth to God's ears!

Hi Lenn!  I don't have any yellow crocuses!  Enjoy it!

Hi June... it's nice to see some color!

Connie, this dog adds so much to my life.  Even when he's bad, it's all good.

Gregg, 90 in Southern California?  My heart is breaking for you!  :-)

Steve, I honestly can't imagine living anywhere colder than here. 

Gabe, hopefully, when the snowbirds leave, the real local buyers will come out and play.

Gita, thank you.  I love him.  Have I mentioned that?  That I love JJ?

Mike, this little guy makes my day.

Gary, thanks!  I was in need of some serious inspiration today!

I was noticing just yesterday that most of our trees have the tiniest signs of green.  I also have tulip buds that are not quite open.  My first flowers of the year got snowed on two weeks ago.  I love spring, new life, starting again fresh.  JJ is just too cute with that hair cut of his.  And you are SO right, there is NOTHING better than your puppy welcoming you home at the end of any day.

Susan... Let's hear it for spring.  It can't come soon enough this year.  The warm weather feels so great and seems to be putting people in happy moods.  HOORAY!!!

Paddy, the daffodils haven't bloomed, but the they are budded out and I have just a few crocuses!

Pam, they have tulips in far away Idaho?  lol!  xxoo

Tammy, my dog is the best part of every day!

Rob, you know my dog is cuter than your dog!

JL, I can't wait for a full out display of beautiful color!  Did you have a great birthday?  I hope so.

Valerie, I took a walk in the sunshine today and it was great!

Susan, what a cutie pie your little puppy is!  And he looks so clean!  Willie has spent a lot of time rolling in mud.  White fur is brown.  Ugh!

Rich, this little guy never goes outside without taking one of his babies!  Then he forgets them, but if I tell him to "go get your baby", he runs right back out and brings one in!  So cute.  Best thing I ever did for myself.

Rob, I saw your post, and Summer is very cute, but my dog is still cuter!  xxoo 

Pat, thank you.  JJ sometimes comes to the door and his little face is brown instead of honey colored.  He seems to like to snort around in the dirt where my liriope bed is... I'm thinking voles... double yuck!
