Springtime

I cannot believe that March is a day away. Did we even have a winter? I do remember a few days of unusually cold weather here, even our ONE day of snow, but it seems to be gone. Of course, I'm not complaining - I love warmer weather and sunshine! The recent days of warmer weather have refreshed my craving for spring. The windows are open, the smell of growing grass and blooming flowers are floating thru my house. The kids are anxious to be outside too. I dont think there has been a day recently that has kept us inside. The washing machine has started to see grass stains and leaves hiding in rolled pantlegs again.
With this turn towards spring, it has made me think that I might need a new season to my life as well. A refreshing of sorts I guess you could say. The days that left us stuck in our houses made me a bit short tempered and dull. Its not exactly where I want to be. Paul likes to call me a flower because I get recharged with nice weather..lol. So let the sun shine in! I know that only God can truly make my days sunny and bright. So Paul and I are trying to make prayers with the kids and quiet times more of a focus than they have been in the past. We can already feel the change in the air!
Here's to a new season, a new spirit, and a springtime full of sunshine and blessings for us all.
