Peaceful Lilacs

My lilacs are blooming.  And I am happy. 


Yesterday was nice and warm. Warm enough that our windows were still open after the kids had gone to bed. I sat on the couch just breathing in the heavenly scent of my lilacs.  If a scent can be peaceful, and I think it can, then lilacs are one of the most peaceful scents ever.  Like freshly bathed babies.  I love them.

Lilacs are my favorite, too! Ours have been bloomed out for a few weeks, so it's nice to see the pretty pictures of freshly blossoming bushes!

Glad to see you back in the blog, too, Aimee. I didn't forget I've promised you directions on the battery case. I am just SLOWer than ever here...

"Like freshly bathed babies". Oh how I loved that perfect description, Chica. For the rest of my life I will always think of you and that thought when I encounter lilacs, and the thought will always make me smile.
