Just back from spending the first night of Passover with cousins in the DC area – where everything is blooming a little faster. Cousins romped in the driveway, and we checked out the cherry trees blossoming in Chevy Chase. Some clever little boys even set up a lemonade stand and reaped the benefits of a lot of foot traffic. Ezra is already excited to do this again in the next few months.

Every year this park (located near the last Queens apartment that we lived in) hosts a Kite Flight – where kids are invited to make a kite, and then fly it. This year the kite instruction was a bit complex and in ernest mostly parents were making kites for kids… but it was great to get to Socrates Sculpture Garden filled with kites and see the lush gardens blooming along the edge of the park.
some cool graphics to glue to our kites

So many magnolias and blooming things, prickly things sticking to us and the smell of warm earth. We uncovered so many little shoots and sprouts by simply raking a top layer of old leaves off of everything while in Cornwall. The world is waking up again.
Rockstar Diaries has a lovely post about the magnolia trees in Central Park (which blossomed a bit faster than the ones in CT).
