Hi All;

Woke to the excited voices of my children yelling "Mommy, it's
SNOWING!!!!" Didn't check the weather forecast or I wouldn't have slept a
wink. Almost burst into tears when I looked out the window and saw no
sign of MOKAN BUTTERFLY's 10 inches of tender green. Put on my old garden
coat and boots to survey the damage...snow was so light and fluffy, I
just brushed it away with my hand and breathed a sigh of relief.

Was actually able to enjoy building a snow fort with the kids before
breakfast and consoled my worries with this thought: They don't call them
perennials for nothing!
