I ended up having the day off today....so my little girl and I spent a while playing in the garden this morning (once it warmed up a bit).

I noticed some more signs of spring (just when I was beginning to wonder if some of the things I had planted and moved survived).

The globe allium blubls are emerging!!!!!! That is SO exciting. I got them on sale, but even then they weren't so cheap. Also, the autumn joy sedums that I divided last spring seem to be coming back nicely. And, the iris that I divided in the fall is starting to show itself again. So fun when things work out the way you hoped!

Of course, things don't always work out...one of the coreopsis that i got during a summer sale and looked great until frost is not showing any signs of regrowth and the other ones are. I will give it a bit more time before I give up on it completely.
