Ah Spring

Spring is here, finally. Do you notice every spring we eagerly wait for the weather to catch up to the date of spring? Well today is the day I think they are in sync. My son asked if I noticed yesterday all the snow was gone, as he just did. Another sure sign.

Today as my boys were making there way to school, I reminded them of the warm spring air arriving just in time for the weekend and for their enjoyment. Jonny asked when he would be able to wear just a t-shirt out because he missed doing that. Nic smiled when I said the weather was perfect for long-boarding. So yes spring is definitely in my house.

What comes with Spring is the clean up, which I dread. The cleanup this year involves more than household chores making me a little apprehensive but it must be done. My sister said something interesting: This year is a time of peace, holding her fingers straight up, or a time of cutting putting her fingers horizontal and making a scissors like motion. Peace or cutting? I can see that. Do you want peace or do you want to cut things out of your life? Good question. Enjoy the day.
