Spring!

Spring is finally here (I think). I'm itching to put flowers in the ground, but we've still got a few nights ahead where it could freeze, so I'm holding off a bit longer. I decided to take Jonathan to the greenhouse down the street the other day though. He's been so excited to plant marigolds in the garden, and since we're not there yet, I thought he could have one in his room instead. We picked that out, and then we wandered a bit. I ended up finding these beauties, alyssum, and the pot they're in, and decided our porch could use a touch of spring as well. It comes in at night, still, but soon the porch will be its permanent home. Until then, having the alyssum's sweet scent fill the dining room isn't so bad, either. :)
