I failed to get a picture of it, but on my way home from school today, I saw a little willow tree in somebody’s front yard with tiny green buds all up and down the branches, giving it that soft glow the trees all get in the spring.
My students have been world-class buttheads for the past week, which is another sign of spring. We’re a little over a week and a half out from spring break, and the kids can’t sit still. They do this every year, but somehow, this is one of the few seasonal patterns that I never remember until I’m in the middle of it, so it surprises me every year.
Ah, well. They’ll settle down after break.
