Spring is here again and it is time to see new life emerge.

After the long winter nights I always look forward to the emergence of new growth on the trees, shrubs and bushes.

A time for grass to get greener and of course dandelions.

This year we are also emerging from the second wave of COVID-19 and people are getting vaccinated.

I hope that we continue to slow the spread of the virus.

It is definitely a time of renewal as the winter and spring rains have brought the moisture we need for new life.

I always like to see raindrops on rose leaves.

There is also a special new life in our family this spring. I am so happy that my beautiful great niece has safely arrived.
