Dots of color through greener grass…
Fairy houses turn glorious with decoration…
The individual asks to be heard amongst all the bloom…
The redbud tree dots pink and purple…
The legend as told by my grandmother (Barbara (Johnson) Mullins Fletcher) is that Judas Iscariot hung himself on a redbud. Redbuds used to be a large tree with bountiful white blossoms. Judas chose this tree to take his life after betraying Jesus. When he did so, the tree withered down and turned pink with embarrassment and thus we have the redbud.
Everyone is curious…
The trees aren’t the only thing budding. Deladis spends her days creating. An artist she might make…
God bless her. 😉
I probably won’t be posting or be able to answer comments for the next week or so. The Haywoods have some work to do. Hope to see some old friends as well. 🙂 I’ll be back soon.

Thanks! I know it. Ivy will be two in just a few weeks, and Deladis already has growing pains.

It’s nice that Deladis is using nature as her subject for the artwork. She does a great job. And isn’t this spring glorious after the winter? It’s hard to stay indoors.

I love redbuds, they’re my favorite trees. More than their blossoms which are glorious, their heart shaped leaves make my heart sing. I can’t believe how much older Deladis looks in those pictures. When did she grow up?
