tomorrow is the first day of March and Ashlee is forcing spring by getting her garden plants started in her grow station... most people, me included, would just head off to the nursery in late June, buy plants that have been growing in the green house, stick em in the ground, and wait...... not Ash.. she carefully selected her seads, Andrew built her a beautiful grow station in the process of renovating the basement, complete with lights, heat pads, it is AMAZING! Ash painted it and carefully laid out her plan.... now she has peppers popping, tulips poking, tomatoes started, broccolli medatating - I am just so proud of her.... Ashlee is just, well, incredible! and how sweet of Andy to build her such a wonderful grow station....
Michelle and Jason, and sweet little Grady await the arrival of baby Shelby... she is due to make her appearance March 25.... personally, I think our eyes will see her before then..... we are anixious, excited, and somewhat nervous.. well, I am... Michelle is my little girl after all, and having a baby is a major body process..... I am an expert, as I am a Mother.... for me personally, I will be glad when delivery is over and Momma and baby are declared to be safe, and sound.... I so want to be with her to hold her hand just as I was when Grady was born... I am not sure I wll be.... I may be in charge of taking care of little Grady boy... we will see how this shakes out....
by the end of the week, we will see yet another round of snow.. then, temps warming to 40... I noticed yesterday, underneath all the white stuff, the pink rhododendron is loaded with tiny little buds...hiding safely there, under the protection of the white blanket of snow.... I am so anxious to see how the new rose shrubs will do this year... last year was thier first in the groud and they gew to 2' tall... I am hoping for an adult size of 6' - we will see....
over the next couple of weekends, I will put final prepreation in to getting the house on the market... I feel like I need to clean winter away..... then, once the snow mountains have melted away in the front and side yard, the sign can go up, the video and pictures can hit the internet, and I can await, the next chapter to come...... ahhhh.... under all the snow, lies spring.....
