Pink Blossoms: Beauty or Sneezing?

Our South Carolina weather is full of surprises. One day we have the heat on, and the next, we are

ready to reach for spring clothing and sandals. Daffodils have popped up and some trees are in full bloom. While driving last week with my daughter, we turned around a cul-de-sac to get full view of a tree that bloomed overnight. It was breathtaking. I pointed it out to my grandson in the backseat.

"Isn't that beautiful?" I excitedly said to him. "That means winter is leaving and spring is coming."

“So that tree is what is making my brother have a runny nose?”
