My husband and the kids planted tulips around our back fence on Sunday.

I LOVE bulbs.  Tulips, crocus, daffodils, hyacinths... I love them.  Even more than other perennials, I love them because they come up when you're most desperate for spring.  They come up out of the Colorado snow.  They appear where you've forgotten you planted them.  They are brightly colorful when all you see is white... or brown.

So thank you, dear, for giving me a gift I won't open until spring... and then, when (and where) I least expect it.
