April Violets

Can you see it?
Today is the first day I spotted my sweet violets.
There will be many more to make my heart happy.
There are many new ones popping through the dry crust, too. It's a wonder they can break through because it's been so dry here............
This one had to come inside with me while we wait for some sort of moisture. I suppose it is going to have to come from under ground, through the well, instead of dropping down from the sky.

The Color Purple

Since I 'joined' FACEBOOK, I've taken two quizes that indicate that purple seems to be MY color, as in aura and crayons. So I thought I must post a picture of my spring violets. My original plants came from my dear friend, Virginia. They have the prettiest heart shaped leaves in the summer that will grow again after a hail storm or after the grasshoppers munch and crunch on the leaves. Some think they are weeds, but to me they are a bit of heaven on earth!
