What a Difference a Day Makes

Twenty-four little hours
Brought the sun and the flowers
Where there used to be rain...


New life is always exciting to encounter and be a part of, whatever form it takes, however small. After the balance of water, oxygen and temperature had time to germinate this little tomatillo sprout, it finally burst forth from a miniscule seed. In a single day the once dormant plant broke the soil surface, greeted the sun and grew 1/2 inch toward it. I hope this never ceases to amaze me.
