The groundhog was correct in predictions of an early spring this year. We may have a few more days before the official start of spring, but we've been enjoying warm weather and blooming flowers for over a week now. Here are the unofficial signs that spring is here:
Clothes and diapers hang on the clothes line
|
Jesse resumes weekly mowing of the lawn |
Spring allergies claim Jackson's vision |
Flowers are blooming all around |
Wardrobes are in desperate need of replacing winter clothes with spring clothes |
Lunches are eaten outside |
The sun doesn't set until 7:30, thanks to Daylight Savings Time |
Kids play in the back yard after dinner while we clean |
Roasted marshmallows are tasty treats |
Ice cream becomes a daily staple |
Weeds overtake the yard |
Parks are a daily part of our routine |
Egg hunt preparations are underway |
Our birdhouses are filling with nests |
There's so much to love about spring. With all the upcoming changes in the next month (potty training, kindergarten registration, job interviews), this season feels even more like a fresh start and chance for renewal. Here's to celebrating this time of growth and new life.
Posts like this make me miss NC even more. It's snowing and 30 degrees here. Yuck.
