Celebrate May Day

George Washington Carver quoted it best. “Nothing is more beautiful than the loveliness of the woods before sunrise.” Let’s take his advice one step further and be a kid again. Celebrate the first day of May tomorrow by waking up early and capturing daybreak. Enjoy the sun before everyone else does, maybe even the birds. Soak in the lush green of the garden and all that is in blossom. And if you can spare a moment, bring back a fading May Day tradition. Find some lovely blossoms in your travels and dabble a few sweets in a decorated basket. Drop off an anonymous assortment of flowers and goodies on a friend’s doorstep and bring an unexpected smile to someone’s face. Make the month of May the celebration of flora and spread spring around! Annie
