Emergence of the crabapple leaves

It was so exciting when I saw the first trace of leaves of the season  -- the little folded up green on the crabapple trees.  On April 9, I saw no sign of leaves on the crabapple trees.  On April 10, I was home sick and did not see the trees.  When I returned to the office on April 11, there they were! I was jubilant!  Ever since then, I've been watching their progression.
