Beneath the dark and winter skies, spring lies waiting to arise!

So there is still plenty of this white stuff on the ground and it sure keeps the boys busy....

But meanwhile, in my refrigerator, some little apple seeds began to sprout, so I planted them here and put them in a sunny west window to continue the process. 

I know...I know..we still have lots of winter left, but as I hang on to the last bit of sunshine for the day, I know that very soon, the earth will start responding to God's gentle promptings and spring will be upon us.
