The magnolia tree in our back garden began to bloom yesterday. I always find it magical that the fuzzy buds I’ve kept my eyes on all winter long can open up to such a profusion of petals.

The magnolia tree in our back yard is in full bloom right now. It’s always a treat to watch the fat furry buds on this tree crack open and burst like slow motion fireworks. But, alas, it’s a short lived celebration as the blossoms are already starting to fall apart.

The purple magnolia in my Mom’s front yard is in magnificent bloom. The movers came today to take her stuff to her new apartment. All’s well if not a tad bittersweet. Transistions…
