Witch Hazel

One of my students brought some branches of witch hazel to school yesterday. I love its spidery, yellow, fragrant flowers. But those twigs made me stop in my tracks. I realized that I didn't know if my witch hazel shrub at home was in bloom or not. The one that grows right outside my front door!

I hurried home after school to look at my shrub. Sigh. Yes, it was in full bloom. And I hadn't even noticed.
