Happy Birthday Mikela

I can't believe that my baby turned 12 years old today! Don't know where the time has gone! Seems like just yesterday you were born. As of today, you are officially a "tween"! Makes me sad, but yet happy to see how beautiful you are becoming. Such a nice and polite young lady! It makes a Mom's heart swell with pride and yet ache for the baby you once was! I love you so very much my little Mikela Jean!

Spring, finally...

I have had these iris' planted for 3 years now and this is my first bloom. I was so very excited! I had to take pictures. I have a lot of other ones planted and I still don't know what color they are. I've got lots of buds, so it won't be long until I have lots of blooms!
