Our snow is finally gone and grass suddenly green from plenty of rain! But this flower is not found in our gardens yet.
Rather, we spent half of last week surrounded by flowers... a treat after a long winter!
Ever since Maren was married, seeing Mother's Day on the calendar has a new meaning: Greenhouse Season.
And ever since we got the little Rpod camper to head south for a bit of winter at our doctor's suggestion (in the winters of 2019, 2020, and 2021), we have also used it to park behind the greenhouses around Mother's Day and work together with the whole family.
This is the third spring where Auntie-time is part of our job... and now it has doubled!
The above photo shows a rare view of Dad sitting. He and Mom walk miles each day helping keep the sales area stocked during the rush of customers. Meanwhile, Elsa and I often help Maren's mother-in-law during the rushes at the checkout counter.

The rest of the time we try to keep up with a busy 2-year old and bouncy 4.5 month old!
Despite weary and achy bodies, it is encouraging to be able to compare year-to-year and see some progress in our stamina!
