Spring?

Today I woke up to the sunshine spilling through the attic window in Jacob's parent's house. It felt comforting and nurturing. Like a warm hug the instant you open your eyes. For me, it's like a shot of Prozac into my veins. It invites a smile and a sigh.

My hope is that this means spring is on its way. I try not to anticipate these things too much, because I know that my hopes will get dashed the second my energy rises and I get excited about the prospect of flowers blooming, sun shining, and birds chirping. But, I think... yes, I'm pretty sure, that spring is coming.

So, here's to sun-filled mornings that draw you outside to enjoy what the Earth provides for us. Here's to new, fresh foods at the farmer's market. Here's to taking runs outside at the crack of dawn. Here's to smiles and happiness. Here's to the smell of earth and new life, to twitterpation and new love. Here's to spring!
