Signs of spring

As I'm sure you've picked up on, we are having the most amazing early spring.  Other than the obvious signs (like the 70+ temperatures, with lows in the 60s!), we can also tell it's spring because there are kids running wild through the neighborhood in shorts and flip-flops, the ice cream man has driven by twice, and now... my daffodils are already blooming!

And my tulips are not far behind!  I'm thrilled - I just planted the bulbs last fall and wasn't sure I got them in soon enough, and our soil is pretty iffy in general.  But they're coming up - yay!  Now I just have to hope we can avoid the inevitable snow that'll come our way before we can truly declare it's spring...
