Day 193: Daylilies and Tulips growing!!!

Hello again,
Today I am thankful for spotting Tulips and Daylilies growing!!! The first new life that isn't a weed or grass that I have spotted growing. lol I am also thankful for tulips and daylilies because they come up so soon after the snow leaves and provide flowers before the other perennials are able to. They get hit with freezing temperatures and spring snow and still keep growing-they are pretty tough. It isn't just Tulips and Daylilies that are tough though-many bulbs are. I am thankful they are so tough or we would have to wait that much longer before the first flowers would come. I can't wait for the Daffodils and the muscari to start popping up as well. :) They give hope that winter is ending and spring and summer are coming. I know I say that alot about a bunch of different things but they are all each little signs of spring coming and I am thankful for each one! Spring is a great season because it is an end to winter and the start of something new and beautiful so spring also means hope to me. It is a great analogy that many people use to describe our lives and how winter never lasts and spring always comes... and spring is so beautiful and full of new life like the tulips and daylilies that are coming up. So with each new sign of spring it is a reminder that winter doesn't last with the weather and our lives. So this is why I am thankful for Daylilies and Tulips growing. :)
