Goodbye January, Hello February!






“Freezing
Cold winds,
Biting chills, and
White snow fluffed hills
Valentine’s day, oh how gay!
President’s day is coming our way.
February, sweet and small, greatest month of all.” 

~Eric Lies


Lets talk February:
-February is the shortest month of the Year- it has 28  
                                    days (29 on the leap year)
-The 2nd day of February is known as "Ground Hogs Day" 
The ground hog is to come out of its burrow to give us his own little forecoast...
      Sunny?  The ground hog will see his shadow and spring     
                  time will begin!
      No shadow?  He will go back in his burrow and sleep 
                      for more winter weather is on it's way!
-Super Bowl Sunday is the 1st Sunday in February
-Valentines Day:  Young & old exchange cards with loved 
        ones, a tradition that is hundreds of years old dating 
        back to the 1400's.
-The 3rd Monday in February is Presidents Day
-The amethyst is the birthstone for February birthdays!
-The Primrose is the flower for this lovey dovey month

While it will be a while before we see this beautiful little flower bloom, we can still bring them into our lives a little early!  Daisy's have a favorite flower of mine because  they are so simple yet stunning all at the same time.  I am tempted to go ahead (if I had some extra money that is...know the feeling?) and start buying some of these items in order to make sure that I will have plenty of daisy's in my life come spring and summer!  What about you?  Are you daisy crazy?
