There are a few blush colored blossoms on my Tulip Poplar in the front yard and a flush of scarlet azaleas are peeking through my front window.   It is rather bizarre considering it is January, but this has been a strange winter in the South.  My confused blooms are at risk if a frost or snow blusters through, as it is known to do in mid-February and it will make for a much less spectacular Spring.  At least my tulips and daffodils are holding back a bit, so there’s hope.

Those words were spoken in a prayer by my son’s friend, Daniel, before we headed downtown to Atlanta last night.  We were a ragtag group at best, several moms, a couple of dads and small group leaders, and a gangly group of seventh grade boys with a penchant for youtube and cracking themselves up.  Our caravan wound it’s way through 5:30 traffic into the heart of the city on a unusually mild January evening.
