Spring is in the air!
I know that spring "officially" started last month, but I am thrilled that it's finally starting to
feel like spring out there. Buds are popping, flowers are showing their colors, and yards are changing from the white-brown of late winter to the bright green of new growth. The air even smells different this time of year--like life is happening and there is no hiding it.
It's hard to not feel a renewed sense of excitement in the spring but also easy to overload yourself with this rejuvenated feeling. During our long winters we tend to think about all of the things we could be doing if it were not for the feet of snow on the ground and the single digit temperatures. We put all these things on our lists and we wait. And I don't know about you, but when spring comes, I am ready to tackle things head on.
But in the midst of this mad push to clean up your yard, plant your garden, put all of the winter tools away and pull out the summer patio furniture, don't forget to sit back and soak it in. Take a deep breath, use your senses to observe the changes that are happening, and take delight in them as they unfold because we all know these seasonal changes won't be here long. Happy Spring to all!
