I know it's only a side note in this – but what you said about spring and not failing to notice things resonated so much with me! we've been putting a lot of work and effort into creating our perfect garden, have been planting and sowing and landscaping and researching and this year, i started a gardening journal where i write down every little detail about the garden. every single day, we take a little walk through the garden to see if anything's changed, if all our plants are happy, if there's any improvements to be made, if things are working for us and the ecosystem as they should. it's making me notice everything so much more, i appreciate every new leaf that is starting to come up so much, and documenting it all gives me so much joy (and hopefully, it will lead to good observations for taking care of the garden and getting good harvests, haha). anyway. i'm rambling. i just really appreciated that small side note of yours.
