When the sprouts first came up they were kind of purple. I was a little concerned as I really wanted some green, but they are greening up nicely now.
This is today. The grass is getting quite tall and the girls were quite concerned as to how we would trim it without a lawn mower that small. I assured them that it would be ok for us to trim the grass with scissors.
I will not miss this month when it is gone. I will gladly welcome March tomorrow morning with a smile. There is even RAIN in the forecast for Sunday, and here I thought that precipitation only came in the form of snow or ice pellets. I know spring will come, the wait is just so hard sometimes. Our pretty green grass on the window ledges really does cheer things up. We are working on some spring crafts also. The absence this week was due to the preparations for the home visit with our Adoption Social Worker that took place on Wednesday. One more big hurdle conquered (and a very clean and organized house to boot). We should have our Home Study approved by the end of next week. Next step is sending paperwork to the USCIS for their approval, then another chunk of paperwork to gather and then it all goes to Ethiopia. We are making progress and that feels good.

That is so crazy - they were nothing when I was there on Sunday!
I'm going to plant some! They are so pretty! Yay for successful social worker visit!h
I pray for spring to come quickly for all my spring loving friends. I'm still enjoying the snow. :) And I'm dreading summer, which comes too quickly for me. I saw a little tiny patch of grass in my yard after our big, fat rain storm. Then the snow covered it the next morning.
Ugh, USCIS... Good luck with that!
