…those may be a gardener’s favorite words! I planted these bluebells late last summer, when they looked pretty much like nothing at all–just a few tenacious leaves (in official gardener terms, bluebells are “ephemerals”). I had hopes they’d take, but with gardening–and yes, with writing–you never know!

Now here they are, all a-tremble in the April breeze, ready to burst forth. And The Most Perfect Thing in the Universe has gotten its first review, which I have to keep a secret for now but is as lovely and hopeful as these spring flowers!
