Yellow streak

Some people think that green is the color associated with Spring having sprung. Those people are mistaken; yellow is the color of Spring. One advantage to Daylight Savings Time (maybe the only advantage) is that DS1 is still awake on the ride home, so he can look out the window and actually see stuff. Riding home on Tuesday, he got very excited. "Mommy, look! Yellow flowers! I see yellow flowers!" And, sure enough, there was a huge patch of daffodils in one of the yards. "And more yellow flowers!" Every neighborhood we passed by had yards with perennials. Then he got even more excited. "That's a big yellow flower bush!" he said, spying a forsythia, "There's yellow all over!" . As we pulled into the driveway, I told him that I had something special to show him. Our garden if finally blooming, so the forsythia bush at the corner of the house has visible color and the buds have finally opened up on the patch of daffodils next to the front steps. "Check it out, buddy. You have your own yellow flowers." He stare in awe. His eyes grew wide. "oh, WOW," he sighed. I have cemented by place in the Mommy Hall of Fame.
