Cautious foliage

It's the middle of May and I've noticed that everything (squirrels, gardeners, bunnies, tulip & daffodils, farmer's markets, etc.) are in the full "Swing of Spring," except for the trees and shrubbery. They have been rather skeptical & timid in bursting out this year, not that I blame them. It snowed 3 feet last week in our surrounding states and it still might snow in southern Minnesota. I only wish they would take the chance and pop, so I can take some pictures of my kids in their spring attire.

I always wonder what it would be like to experience a strong contrast in seasons. I still did get excited when our leaves grew in a few months ago! Maybe the wait makes it even more satisfying.
