Abracadabra

This block is called Abracadabra. Its name may have something to do with the fact that the points of all the pieces in the center just lock into place like magic. I love it when things work out that way. This afternoon we walked into town to shop for something that had been sold out on our last trip. But today it was right there on the shelf, waiting for us. Two days ago we were surprised to see little green sprouts between tree roots; the very first signs of crocuses, snowdrops and hyacinths. I know winter is far from over, but just seeing those little shoots makes me feel so...grateful. Gratitude is a funny thing. When you start looking for things to be thankful for, they suddenly start popping up all over. Just like magic.
