Dandelions......

Today I officially welcomed our little yellow friends to our yard. We have plenty of them. More than our fair share really.
A part of me is happy to se them...it is sign of spring after all and I have been waiting for it.
I want to embrace them, yellow is my favourie colour....but, the truth is they drive me crazy.
I don't like how the yard looks neglected as they begin to take over what little grass we seem to have left.
I joke about cutting the dandelions like others talk about cuttung the grass.
I wonder how the neighbors feel....the seeds blow all around.  I always was good at sharing!

There will be some spraying of horrible chemicals in our future.
And then planting of grass seed.
And then waiting for it to growso we can cut grass instead of dandelions.

In the meantime, I am happy to greet spring as I wander around the yard, dandelions and all!

Cheers to a wonderful, sunny, spring day...
