Doing a little weeding in the garden, a small splash of yellow caught my eye. I looked down and was astonished to see that it was a flower no taller than my thumb.
I was wondered for a moment where it had come from, then suddenly remembered the crocuses I had planted last fall. I have been waiting for them to come up for several weeks now, but I had been looking for them on the opposite side of the garden!
What a beautiful surprise. You are right, it is like a little ball of sunshine.
