Grateful for Surprises!

Surprise!

My heart is full of gratitude for this glorious surprise on a cold winter hike – this little white flower growing by the side of the trail. The forest abounds with winter glory of green, brown and gold – lush green moss, mushrooms popping out from the ground and from tree stumps, tree branches full of new growth. But flowers in February? This is a joyful surprise just for me!
