A Walk Through Mom’s Garden.

“All through the long winter, I dream of my garden. On the first day of spring, I dig my fingers deep into the soft earth. I can feel its energy, and my spirits soar.”

- Helen Hayes

Every spring, I look forward to my mom’s flower garden. The flowers sweep through her front yard, across her entryway, and around the side of her home, offering guests a welcoming spring view. Colors burst from every corner, and in the wind you can hear the soft whisper: Spring is here.

    Love the Buddha and those pink and white flowers just below it. Gorgeous garden, Caitlin! Your mom has done a great job. :)

    Your mom has a gorgeous garden! I always look forward to experiencing spring at my parents’ house too, particularly when the lilacs are blooming. I inherited my mother’s love of flowers, but I just don’t have the right kind of space (north-facing, wooded yard with far too many deer) or enough time to replicate the gardens I grew up with. Someday!

    These photos are gorgeous!
    Love all the signs of life in the spring…something about it is so encouraging!
    My mom is also an avid gardner….I don’t think that I got her green thumb though!
