The rain keeps coming down.  What a blessing!  Spring rains, though chilly, give me a sense of warmth and excitement.  The heat kicks back on, warming the house, as we look out the windows at all the green popping out all over.  The rains will bring warmer days and much, much more green.  For that, I am truly thankful.

I have my cauliflower and onion sets ready to go the ground but it is much too wet right now.  I also have another set of lettuce ready to go in.  I always plant my greens in batches so I have them for weeks on end.  Nummy.  Soon, the sun will peek out from behind the clouds, dry God's great earth and we will be able to get these in the ground.  Also, I MUST get my peas in, way late.  I usually get them in earlier but life has not allowed for that this year.  God's plans are not always ours, are they.

My mom goes home tomorrow after a 6 week stay.  We have been trying to restore her to health, as much as humanly possible.  Now the time has come for her to try on her own.  We pray she succeeds and gets stronger and stronger.  She will come back again over the summer for a month - 6 weeks again for one more little stay with her little doctor daughter, me--No, I'm not really a doctor but I love to study and study natural medicines and practice them on her.  Hey, this trip, I managed to get her off 3 of her medical prescriptions.  Yipee!!!

Pray you are all enjoying this wonderful time of year, preparation for plantings, summer, new growth and, most importantly, the celebration of our dear Lord's resurrection.  What a blessed time of year.
