The paperwhites and the cold

Every year the paperwhites bloom in mid to late January.

These bulbs belonged to my great grandmother and my grandmother had stored them for years and years. I found them onetime in a old tea kettle she had given me to paint on.

They are the prettiest little flower that brings in the new year. They bloom at a time not much else blooms it is always a nice surprise to see them pop up.

Sometimes it is in the simple things that could put a smile on your face.
