April. Just the sound of it makes you think no more snow, flowers, school soon being over, proms, bird watching and so much more. It's my Dad's birthday month and he will be 88 this year. Every day is a gift to hear his voice, email to him and start planning the 10 hour trip to his home in Pennsylvania.
There is a lot going on in my studio and this weekend I was inspired by the hearty crocus and snowdrop flowers that are faithfully pushing their way out of the ground and into the sunlight. What a miracle flowers are! And I just watched a video by a local Detroit beekeeper who has hives that are busily preparing for more warmer days. Did you know bees are already out collecting pollen? And did you know that when one of their hives doesn't make it over the winter, the bees will still go in and out of it to gather whatever nutrition they can still find there? What a miracle honey bees are! The miracle of nature is all around us...I am so grateful. Just a gentle reminder that we are the protectors of these miracles and not to use pesticides please. There are so many organic and natural alternatives and we are the keepers of our planet.
