my abc's

My book-loving friend Pondside recently had a very cute post with an abc meme.
I thought I'd give it a try, too.

***

S.  Sibling:  I have 3 brothers and a sister.  I'm the 4th in line.  We had one bathroom growing up.

So, there you have it!  To quote dear Pondside..."your turn!"

so happy it's Spring!

 

Happy Monday & Happy Spring!

I spotted these little lambs on my way home one day.

So very precious!

I've been back twice to take pictures.

Today, they were closer to the fence!

 

Mama did not like me so close & sounded the alarm.

The little one was still curious...

but then...just hungry!

Thanks for stopping by!

my orange tree

In the sun room, my little orange tree is blooming like crazy.  

I don't remember having this many blossoms.  

The scent is heavenly!

The little oranges that follow don't have much of a chance to survive.

Someone thinks they are just little toys, waiting to be plucked

& bounced around the house.

Spring is just 17 days away!
