Forsythia

One more day off before work starts again. It’s been quite a sunny nice day and we have worked some outside. Started the day with grocery shopping after breakfast.

In the afternoon my parents-in-law came over with a birthday present for me (thank you!) and we had cake and coffee outside and a nice chat. 

When I was born I received a forsythia bush and every year it blooms in time for my birthday. Every year we bring in one branch from the bush and I picked one up before we went to our paradise. Now it is in full bloom and I really cherish this lifelong tradition. We have planted a forsythia in paradise too and it blooms so pretty down there. Makes me smile.
