Though Puxatony Phil seemed to get his forecast wrong for most of the country, he seemed to get it right for me. Yesterday I saw my daffodils had poked through. Part of me says: oh little daffys, I think you might have jumped the gun a little! I hope a frost doesn't come that does you in! But a much bigger part of me says YAY! YAY! YAY! The first day I see my daffodils come through is really and truly one of my favorite days of the year. I love to think that we are through the worst of winter and spring is on it's way. I love that it's getting lighter and lighter in the morning. I love that soon I will not be fighting coats and socks whenever we go somewhere. I love that soon I will not be cold all the time - I am always telling Derek I've been cold since October. I love that my kids will be playing outside longer than it took us to get them ready to go oustide. Spring cannot get here soon enough.

Oh that makes me okay with coming back home. I hope they didn't jump the gun and it is warm soon (like next week).
I'm happy for you and your daffys! I hope they make it and that your spring arrives soon. I don't want you to be cold for more months.
Yay Yay Yay is right. I'm so happy for you and your daffys.
I think you have daffys that thinking positive! Maybe this week they could use a little woobie at night.
You're cute to have a nickname for Daffodils.
Do you remember your impatient you named Penelope? It drove a gardener bonkers because she didn't understand & was insistent there was no "Penelope Impatient" variety?
People that easily annoyed deserve to be annoyed. You were just being cute naming your plant.
