Everything's coming up.... flags. :(, originally uploaded by ~ k j ~.

Every spring, I wait for the hostas and ferns to start peeking through the mulch.

Every spring I cringe when my oldest son and the neighborhood boys start playing baseball/football/soccer on the front lawn near these gardens.

Every year many of these plants are stepped on and damaged, but they are resistant and survive. Even prospere.

Every spring I get anxious, this spring is no exception.

Grow faster plants!!!
