Signs of Spring

The past week's weather doesn't exactly raise my hope for spring. A week ago, driving my son to a birthday party, I drove past a blossoming tree. Yeay, spring is here, I thought to myself. But the past few days of bitterly cold wind and the TV weather forcaster talking about arctic weather has made me think differently. Wolly hats and mittens are still very essential pieces of equipment on trips to the playground.

A sure sign of spring, though is the arrival of Summer stock. We have just received our first Emile et Rose Summer delivery.
